Mike Of course they would have demanded a hand count if they lost. They would have three other states in an uproar by now as well, and the cronies from the high ground would have flip flop arguments. Bush said before the election he would continue to campaign if he won popular, and lost the electorial..opps, who'd a thunk it would go this way.. noone remembers that. It's balony. Problem is Dems are behind now, and when behind will be looked at as the trouble makers..lol I mean Bush has no problem accepting things the way they are now.. 300 votes is plenty...lol No response nessesary..lol This whole thing is rediculous. wizzz

I would feel more comfortable with a foot recount. At least, that way, it would be harder to push those chads. Perhaps, in the future, they can apply food coloring to the election workers hands to ensure a clean election, and let the chads fall where they may.

Mike, I heard they planned to fight the electoral vote also if they won the popular vote (as was expected by many). Both were reported in a newspaper, but there hasn't been any verification from the republican source of either claim yet. If so, it just continues to strengthen my Libertarian views. I don't want the use of any of my money or personal liberties in the hands of any of these scumbags. Wayne
