but enough of this. Let's get back on topic The paper doesn't say that Bush stole the election.
It says that for various technical problems, that when an automatic balot counter tabulates votes, each ballot has around 2% chance of not being counted.
Aaron, is there anything else to say? do you realise how well you summarised a whole lot of things with your 2% statement? You just invalidated every election closer than 2% when counted by these machines, irrespective of Bush's beyond
This is probably the reason why some states MANDATE a hand recount for any election which is within 2%. -- For this and various other reasons, I favor a constitutional amendment requiring ballots which are specifically designed to be, and counted ONLY by hand. It's a heck of a lot easier for both election officials and election-observers to detect any attempt at fraud with ink-marked, eyeball-read ballots. If it takes an extra hour before polling place counts are known... who cares...at least then we know that no miscounts are taking place (deliberate or not). Every automated means of counting votes is an invitation for fraud -- especially the ones with a telephone modem. If you're not familiar with the subject, go out and find the book "Votescam!" It's interesting how the two brothers who wrote the book died of unnatural causes -- one just before the book went into publication, and the other a few years later. And I know that they have no political axe to grind -- Several of my relatives attended the high school which they went to within 10 years of them... as such, I'm familiar with the typical politics of that neighborhood (In fact, I live within it right now), and the majority of vote-count chicanery and other vote fraud which they document in the book is by the same political party which they seem to favor (and which is the prevailing party affiliation in this part of the city for many, many decades).
the womb powers and irrespective of how one can fold a $20!!!!
Hahahah!
there is little else to say, so i clipped it.
