Actually, Mr. 7-2. That is the count on the question of whether the scheme set up by the SCOFLA was bogus and unfair.......

TRUST THE PEOPLE! Remember when those words were used BEFORE the election, when 5 to 4 wanted the votes of Floridians? After the election, those same people became morons whose votes didn't deserve to be counted. I suspect 5 to 4 will never use the phrase "trust the people" again now that a team of lawyers delivered him the vote by running out the clock, thus depriving those people whose votes were rejected by the machines the right to have their votes counted AS THEY WERE IN ALL PAST DISPUTED FLORIDA ELECTIONS. Counting the undervotes by the same standard as the one signed into law in Texas by 5 to 4 would have been the honorable thing to do, but this was not about honor and character, another phrase used BEFORE the election, it was about winning at any cost. OJ won too. Del
