How about compared to similarly counted areas? By that I mean, in areas where punch cards are used. For the sake of argument, let's compare apples and apples. For your general disagreement with others, you can use oranges.

I see you parrot Boies's arguments and massaged numbers well. Just the other day, Gore was talking about how those "wealthy" Florida counties with optical scanning technology were demographically very different from the "poor" counties who had to resort to votamatics. Comparing apples and oranges, aren't we? It's as useful as saying there was a higher percentage of Republican votes in Missouri than in Florida's optically scanned counties, so the Missouri vote must have been mis-counted. I would suspect that the "wealthy" counties had fewer undecideds, and therefore fewer undervotes. <edit> Boies is a sleazeball, as he proved to Judge Sauls yesterday with the attempted final order shenanigan. He might not recover his credibility at all with this judge, which is an awfully big thing for a dream team litigator to lose in a case like this.
