<Geeze, don't have a hernia abstract. All these things are pretty well prescribed by various provisions of the Constitution and a number of state and Federal statutes.>

from Time Magazine:

If the Florida Republicans name a Republican slate, and the courts count up a Gore win and order a Democratic slate, then its on to the U.S. Congress — on Jan. 6, two weeks before the inauguration. The House and Senate would each have the opportunity to choose its own slate, with the House's narrow GOP majority choosing Bush.

The new Senate, of course, is split 50-50. And Al Gore — still the vice president — will cast the tying vote. Which splits the Senate from the House, and which throws the election of the president of the United States back to Florida's chief executive officer: Jeb Bush.

And all hell breaks loose.
