kodiak_bull, The slippery slope is getting steeper. I had to laugh at that Florida State Judge today. He tossed that case like a hot potato, ha! We are going to end up recounting all over Timbuktu. The answer I personally think lies in an old State of New Mexico territorial law which requires candidates who end up tied in an election in New Mexico "to resolve the tie through drawing lots or a game of chance".

Usual method of resolution is a game of five-card stud poker, last used in 1998 when two candidates tied I believe for a sheriff's position.

Why not? Gore and Bush meet mano-a-mano maybe in Mesilla at Chope's Mexican Food Restaurant, and deal their fate....Deuces wild?

That would be a classic ending to a wild campaign...
