Dear Zeev Hed: The Republicans did not request any hand counts anywhere in Fla. Seminole county is heavier Democrat registered anyway. I think the pickup there came from finding uncounted ballots. What I dont like about this is the SELECTIVE handcounting of CERTAIN counties. IMHO machine counting is not subjective and although it makes errors, statistically on a large population the errors should be equal to each side. When you pull out only CERTAIN counties you skew the results, I cant see how people could find that fair. JDN

OT:Zeev,

If machine count cannot be trusted, why should human hand counting be trusted? You'd think that machines are basically impartial, and if there were flaws, the flaws should apply to everyone.

If counting by human hands are now required, whose hands will do the counting? Since so much is at stake, are the humans doing the counting allowed to hold political preferences?
