>This is my sole problem with manual recounts: If you watched what Broward County did, it was an absolute travesty. If the voter voted Democratic for everyone but president, they assumed intent to vote for Gore regardless. I'm sure that they were right sometimes, but I'm equally sure that votes were manufactured.


That's not an "absolute" travesty as you've stated it - it's only a partial travesty. For you be more correct in your assertion, you need to include "if the voter voted Republican for everyone but president, they assumed intent to vote for Bush regardless." That is unless you, yourself, are being partial - what do you think?
