So what? He didn't request them by way of attempting to seek advantage. The system, as I think this experience shows, is flawed. Perhaps what Gore has gotten is now equal to what Bush recieved, territorially speaking? I don't know exactly.

But I do know that the flawed system is what it is and it shouldn't be. And what Bush and Gore both got appears to some of us, as the case may be, to be within the law as it exists.

But to stretch the system out to encompass inclusion of territorial advantage sought after the fact and the deadlines, simply makes the situation worse. Let 'em give us state-wide fair hand-counts or nothing more, this time around. That seems fair to me. Al Gore lost this coin flip, and he shouldn't be allowed to keep flipping the coin over and over with a weighted side on it.
