Actually I now agree with you about counting the undervotes statewide. However, to make it fair, all other hand recounts should be not counted as these were either not completed or were done with different standards.

Not that this is totally fair but like you said, it might give some legitimacy to the election. On the other hand it wouldn't be as fair as just using the machine count state wide rather than just hand counting undervotes only. The other alternative is hand count the whole state.

Are you aware there are some "overvotes" now in question in Martin county where is was possible to determine the will of the voter quite easily? But the FLSC decision didn't say to count them.

My guess is that the USSC will say either: hand recount the whole state on a standard or just let the 2nd machine count stand. Which do you like? <G>
