If an ACCURATE count is what the Gore camp wants WHY only a hand re recount in 4 counties.....????
Shouldnt we do the whole state...

I heard on the radio that Gore has suggested that the whole state be counted if Bush will agree to live with the results. I think Bush tossed Baker another dog biscuit instead and sent him out to bark at reporters.

Jemuel, again the answers are this. You are simply wrong.

1) The ballot was NOT legal. The hole must be to the right of the candidates name. This ballot was never used before either.

2) Florida law allows for any candidate and any county to do a manual vote, because these 1950's machines make 3-5% errors.

Even George Bush himself and many other states have determined that human intervention is more accurate.

3) AGAIN....even Warren Christopher himself is fine with a total manual recount in Florida. He is even fine if Bush wants to do a manual in Oregon or other close states.

IN FACT, I GUARANTEE THAT BUSH WILL ORDER A MANUAL RECOUNT IN OTHER STATES IF GORE PASSES HIM IN FLORIDA..... and that's fine with the Gore camp.

But it sure looks hypocritical, doesn't it?
