>>>Why do you keep leaving out that there is a law that allows for ONE WEEK for the hand re-count? Please explain.<<< Well, I guess I'm gonna have to hand-walk you through the week after election day. This, by the way, ain't fuzzy math: Tuesday = election day Wednesday = day one (24 hours) Thursday = day two (48 hours) Friday = day three (72 hours) NOTE: handcount request made! (Now you're getting kicked in the groin every step you take.) Saturday = hand recount day Sunday = hand recount day Monday = hand recound day Tuesday = all hand recounts completed, and Ambassador-elect Harris is so very proud of herself given she's shown such fair discretion. If the hand count request, as prescribed by Florida law, comes in at 4:59 p.m. on Friday, and within the 72 hour prescribed period, how much time is left for four counties to hand count 1.5 to 1.7 million votes? You saw what happened in the Palm Beach County count. Try this, Srexley--grab your calculator: Next Friday at 4:49 p.m. start counting out loud to 1.7 million. See if you make it by Tuesday's deadline! Even if your whole neighborhood helped ya, I don't think you'd make that deadline. One more thing: As of yesterday, the state of Texas had not yet certified its votes. Should we send Ambassador-elect Harris to Texas, replete with spurs and a bull whip, to hurry up that process? (LOL)
