Jeb's Boy Speaks - Tuesday Is Deadline

From CNN. This would appear to throw a monkeywrench
into the manual recount. Maybe Bush can get away
with blocking this after all.


Bob Crawford, who replaced Gov. Jeb Bush as commissioner of Florida's Canvassing Commission, said Saturday that if a county misses the state's deadline for certifying results, the entire county's vote will be thrown out.

"The statute is very clear that if a county's results are not to us by 5 p.m. Tuesday we shall ignore that county's vote, and the counties need to be very aware of that," Crawford told reporters. "Candidates asking for recounts need to be aware of that."

take it all the way to the Supreme Court.
Which will have the moral authority to call for a new nationwide presidential election. The chances of two elections in a row coming out almost a tie are almost zero.
