I'd like to see all the various agencies that want to use the sunshine laws to count the ballots get together in one of the convention centers and work as a team. And I'd really love it if we got a breakdown of what the "problem" ballots looked like. I.E., on those butterfly ballots, just how many of the overvotes were "gore-buchanan" and were there other kinds of errors. That kind of statistical information would help us create an analysis that would lead to better voter information in the future, as well as (hopefully!) better balloting methods.

And I don't want to see just the undervotes/overvotes counted again. I'd like to see the undisputed votes counted again. Computers can have programming errors that add votes here and there. (Sometimes deliberately.)

As for the absentee ballots -- well, absentee ballots are more susceptible to fraud than any other kind of ballot. Florida law does allow unpostmarked ballots to be counted if the material inside is dated according to one thing I've seen on the internet, and it is the job of the county election commissioners to know election law -- so no unpostmarked ballots should have been tossed until the inner information was checked. (And if that was incorrect, and unpostmarked ballots are invalid under Florida law, then it was the Florida legislature who disenfranchised those military voters, not the democrats.) Again, what I really want to see is a statistical analysis. Which ballots were disallowed and for what specific reason.

Couldn't get to the first thread to see if someone already suggested this. Sorry if it's a repeat.
