You realize why "only certain districts" were to be counted, don't you?
Everyone of them used punch-card voting -- which, while outmoded, is the Democrats favorite system.
Because:
1. It's easier to cheat and...
2. In close races, easier to manipulate.
In Florida, with every re-count in a punch-card precinct, more new votes were produced for the Democrat than for the Republican. Because, with every handling of the ballots, more "loose chads" would drop out. Statistically, the new votes would be in roughly the same proportion as the previous count. Meaning that the Democrat would increase his vote totals with each re-count by a larger amount than the Republican.
Daley's Chicago uses punch-card machines for that very reason. And, of course, Daley was expert on the subject. Consequently, Daley talked Gore into the re-count, knowing whar would happen, and specified what counties would participate in the re-count.
Recall Dade County, in particular. They started the Dade County re-count by precinct number, from lowest to highest. And, half way through, after Gore had picked up several hundred votes, they stopped the count...because they knew what would happen from that point forward.
Specifically, they had counted all the precincts which favored Gore and, thus, had produced as many new votes for him as they were going to get. If they continued counting, it would be the precincts which had favored Bush. Consequently, Bush would start gaining votes -- closing the gap.
The Florida Supreme Court actually insisted this partial re-count be included in the official count -- fully revealing either their ignorance or their corruption.
For sure, the Florida debacle reveals how much the 'Rats are prepared to employ election fraud in order to win elections. It is simply appalling that the Republicans have failed to address this very real threat to the integrity of our elections.
Gee, I had no idea the dems wanted to cheat.
Further, the districts they wanted recounted were all DEM districts.
