RE: "My personal reading of the Fla. law is that it requires a recount in the case of a close election (defined in the statute) but does not require that the recount be a handcount." ----------------------------------------- You're wrong. It must be done manually. Section 102.661 (5) Section C states the canvassing board shall: (c) Manually recount all ballots. Also note: our discussion, that I started with Duke/Gary, has assumed this pertains to the case where the error in vote tabulation is sufficiently large enough that it would change the outcome of the election. I hope this assumption was obvious. RE: "Reports of the judge's ruling yesterday seem to confirm that he reads the statute in the same way. " You're wrong. Please refer to the Judge's text (i.e. his actual words) where the Judge said she disagreed with Harris because Harris "ignores 102.661." You should really read the full text of the Judge's orders --- it is much better than reading it 3rd hand. Amy J
