If the count is close here, there is a recount and so on until all parties are satisfied. That does not seem likely to be the case in Florida. Whatever the result is said to be now, will not be accepted by about half the country.

It seems to be accepted that whoever wins Florida, wins the country. Why not just have a new vote in Florida?

After some agreement has been reached on the ballot methods of course. That shouldn't take too long, should it?

Is there now really any other way of settling the country down? There will be no peace if either party claims victory with such a small majority under these circumstances. Certainly not now if the lawyers and courts are left to decide.

Is that not what the people, of whatever Party should be demanding?

Or can democracy loose as long as your Party wins?
