Dr. Id:

<< That is a greater conflict of interest than that of 99% of the Republicans in the country. She should have done the right thing and recused herself. >>

In Florida State, they have Attorney General who is a Democrat and he is also on the committe and how come no body is raising any objections about that.

Also, these ballots are meant to be read by machine and we are in the 21st century and the President-Elect is suppose to lead the country into new technology. If we want to go back to the stone age, then let us get rid of these machines and start ballot papers where in people select their candidates by putting 'X' against their names. With these kind of ballots we can do recounts after recounts and they wont be subjective counts.

Dr. Id,

You are totally correct and I can only say that you have my apologies. The only defense I have is the heat of the discussion and a mind set. I do however disagree with your opinion but I respect it. What should have happened is not what happened. Harris knows the spot light she is under, she knows what scrutiny she has to go through, so to me that makes her decisions all the more fair because of the latitude she has to give the counts not to seem biased.

Once again, my apologies !!
