Jim,

Why do the Dems want a recount in Duval County, and why did the Republicans withhold key information from them about the number of uncounted ballots?

Your theory and insults are unsupportable.

Jimbo - "You either not hand count or hand count the whole state. To get a fair evaluation."

Quit whining. Anything that does not give an advantage to Bush is unfair in your view.

The Bush campaign could have requested a recount if it was not sitting on its narrow lead expecting that the absentee ballots would hold their lead while at the same time making righteous statements about how awful it would be to use the Courts.

But as soon as the R's figured out that an accurate recount in Palm Beach, a Democratic stronghold, might turn the count against Bush they raced to the Court to stop the Palm Beach manual recount. The R's don't want an accurate count if it means that Gore loses. They just want to win.

The notion of what is right and wrong just changes to match what is expedient. Very shoddy ethics but effective if you want to win at all costs.

That's how I see it as well.

Jim, Re: You either not hand count or hand count the whole state. To get a fair evaluation

That is fair but not according to the law as some counties have a 72 hour(from end of poll) limitation on when a hand count request can be raised. How are you going to handle this situation ?
