>>what purpose does this right serve if the results can be ignored because of a time limit that cannot be met in an election of this size?<< 1) Whose fault is it that Palm Beach County is using an archaic, antiquated system that was rejected over a decade ago by the Bureau of Standards? 2) Whose fault is it that Palm Beach County needs to hold questionable ballots up to the light to divine the will of the voter? 3) Whose fault is it that Palm Beach County has been sitting around on their hands for over a week now? If they had really tried, maybe they could have had the manual recount done by the deadline, but the deadline has come and gone and they haven't even started. They aren't electing the local dog-catcher, you know. The whole world is waiting while Palm Beach diddles around. Enough is enough.
