All this scrutiny is embarrassing to Floridians who had no problem following directions and/or arrows on the ballot, but the logical end of this recount process is not likely to end in Florida. The disgraceful innuendoes about Bush's brother Jeb fixing the election notwithstanding, (originating, as I understand it, directly from Gore's comment to Bush in the second phone call, "This is not something your brother can fix.") the truth is that there are always problems and errors in any election, and the harder you look for errors, the more you are likely to find. I do not believe the stories of people, Haitians or others being turned away and not allowed to vote. That is bullshit. All precincts are not set up to register new voters on election day. If they were trying to register in the crush of an election crowd, maybe then they were turned away and that's just too bad for them, if that happened, but if they were registered, no way were they turned away. If every other state where the voting was close had to endure this kind of scrutiny, I believe we would see some wildly fluctuating numbers. If it comes to that, at some point the arbitration must pass from the state to the federal, and then, what institution will provide the final arbitration? Janet Reno's justice department? A baffling civics question. I don't have any answers but I really resent comedians and commentators impugning the honor of the governor of my state with absolutely no justification. He doesn't deserve it and Gore can go pound sand.
