In the Justices' per curiam opinion, they noted that, "The right to vote is protected by more than the initial allocation of the franchise. Equal protection applies as well to the manner of its exercise. Having once granted the right to vote on equal terms, the State may not, by later arbitrary and disparate treatment, value one person's vote over that of another." no it was about equal protection under the law, all the ballots weren't treated equally. How come the dems didn't want to count the military vote ? The dems don't want to count ever vote, only their votes. get real

Despite infighting and The Republican Slime Machine and Hate Radio, the Democratic Presidential candidates are still like to hand McCain his butt in a combat helmet: apnews1.iwon.com And with Congress and the Senate, it isn't even close. The Grotesque Outrage Perpetrators (GOP) are on their last legs.

knighty, are you aware of any recount in florida that had al gore ahead? i was under the impression votes were recounted and bush still won. i lost all respect for gore's team when they only wanted to count one or two democratic counties... talk about the pot calling the kettle black. ultimately, it was clinton's fault for putting bush in office - he picked al gore because he didn't want to pick a guy who would take a lot of attention from himself. it worked for 8 years, but al lacked the personality to win on his own, in spite of the road being paved with gold. if clinton's vp had any kind of personality, he would have won easily.
