I've heard this business of the Republicans "paying" before. It's just sour grapes by the democrats. They said that before, during and after impeachment. While they did loose a few seats in both the House and Senate, they certainly did not get "turned out of office in groves" as in "having to pay" for that. Same thing here. Yes, some sort of election reform will come out of this for the betterment of all of us. But to think that there's such a huge error rate only in Democratic areas that will be "cleaned up in the future" in a way of "making Republicans pay" is hogwash. Daryll40

Jerome, note that when you say "In the Seminole county case absentee were allowed to be taken home by Republican volunteers to add in missing data.This is a no no in every state." you should be clear that the problem was a missing voter identification number on the applications (not the ballots). The number should have been pre-printed on the form and was not something the voter would ever be expected to put on it. I don't believe a voter would even know what his/her vin was unless it was printed on the form.
