Well, I think it would be easy for someone like yourself that "jes wants all them good Florida folks votes to count", that the CRIME, if any, was in adding information, that was in fact, correct to the APPLICATION. But there is no dispute what was the clear intent of the voter, ON THE BALLOT, itself. Maybe we should put the registrar of voters in jail? Edit: I don't wish to seem harsh by I am getting very tired of being spun whether its a politician or a microprossor company like AMD.

Scumbria, re:<tampered voter applications> We'll see if the court thinks fixing a printing mistake is considered "fraud" in a legal sense. The complainant will have to prove that, because the number was added to the form after it was filled out, that people voted who were not entitled to vote. The election does not have to be perfect under Florida law, it just has to be honest. The Democratic party added information to the request for absentee ballot forms also even though the state statute says that only the voter and immediate family can fill them out. Petz

Scumbria, re: "We are still in the early innings of this game." The thing about the law, is that the status quo has momentum. Getting additional votes counted, or getting counted votes thrown out, is an uphill battle. The burden of proof falls on the guy that wants to change the status quo. The advantage to Seminole and Martin is that it's clean cut, is it a violation of the law or is it not. The disadvantage is the traditional Florida priority to give the benefit of the doubt to voters intentions. Not a slam dunk, but an uphill battle for Gore. John
