  •  Florida is THE (none / 0)

    most important state to recount.

    I can't emphasize this enough.

    •  asdf (none / 0)

      For what reason is Florida the most important to recount?
      •  Why? (none / 0)

        Because:
        A - It's had fishy election results since 2000
        B - Has extremely corrupt and inexcusable humans beings such as Katherine Harris and Jeb Bush behind the curtain
        C - Had some of the most striking irregularities (perhaps tied with Pennsylvania and New Hampshire.) But this one we lost, and this one has a LOT of electoral votes at stake - and I do believe such a corrupt election system we can consider it red until something drastic is done.

          A - IMO goes right in line with B
          B - Glenda Hood is more in it than Harris and no better imo.
          C - From what I've read though, the NH recount is important for precisely this reason.... that it will expose Florida and others who use optical scans.

          The thing is though, it's such a drastic margin that a recount would do little to nothing for this presidential election.  What does make me think this is an important state to recount, more so than Bush-Kerry, is Castor-Martinez.  That result stinks to high heaven imo... especially the way Martinez got a huge dump of votes towards the end of the counting.
