Edit. The rules do NOT recognize the advantage to one candidate from employing hand-counting in counties which choose to use these machines, and hence they do NOT say "therefore, the other guy gets his chance in this regard." The rules only anticipated voting machine failures adversely affecting either candidate(voters, perhaps), thus he'd be allowed a timely hand-count. I believe the rules have been twisted in meaning, hence Gore's version of them could not have been anticipated, and from an unbiased point of view(I do believe), I'm glad Bush is fighting this travesty.
