Robert, what is your statistical estimation as to how many others would have voted in the manner you suggested you had voted? Now compare your estimation to the statistical likelihood of tens of thousands of votes never counted at all. I dare say, your estimated number pales when compared to votes which never got counted at all!

There is no estimation. That`s the point. No one with 100% accuracy can tell how I intended to vote given the rules and instuctions at the time of the election.

That means that anyone that counts a indented chad is casting a vote, period. They do not know or could ever know how I voted. They can only guess.

The only way anyone could know how I voted is if I took the responsiblity to vote properly following the rules of removing the chad.

Any vote other than that is just a guess and casting a vote.

All votes were counted. The only ones not counted were the ones that no one can tell how the voter voted because they failed to follow the rules of voting and can not counted because of this.
