Biggest problem I have with that is not that TX law says you an count them, but that FL law does not have such an ascertainable standard and leaves it up to the commissions. This creates a situation where there is too much power in the hands of the county's election commission to do what they want. There should be a standard, across FL that all counties have to follow this election, last election and future elections. TX has that standard codified in the TX laws. FL does not which means FL leaves open the question that the rules are changed to get the result the county's election commission desires. Such an interpretation does not do the country any good in the long run and increases the chance that the populous finds the entire voting process to be meaningless and fraudulent. Codify that standard, apply it uniformly and I won't have a problem with it. That is where I come down.

If they count them in FL, they need to go back and find the over-votes in the Bush and Gore piles. 500,000 ballots per county to look through by hand by Sunday.
