I would agree that Palm Beach had a high degree of anomolies, but I did not see that with Broward, Miami-Dade, and Volusia. Duvall county had 21,000+ ballots thrown out, but that county is not being asked to be hand re-counted because it is Republican leaning.

To me it is not up to the Republicans to ask for a hand re-count in the other counties. They were ahead. I don't think I have ever seen the winner of an election ask for a re-count. I think the state of Florida should make the decision to count all the counties by hand, if they are going to allow those four specific counties to do it. That's the way the first automated re-count was done. It was done for the whole state, since it was the whole state that had a close vote.

Just my opinion.
