Technically yes, but "7" and "5" are just arbitrary numbers that don't mean anything.

Actually, the FIRST USSC decision was 9 - 0. second one, yes 7-2, the 5-4 was the split on remedy, 2 wafflers wanted to count every Florida ballot if possible (but not really). But only 3 were hard-core defenders of Rule of Law in elections. Still, it should be easy for USSC to remand this case back and MAKE the NJ SC write their opinion in light of maintaining existing electoral scheme. Is there some Federal law that applies to all Federal elections relevent to this???

Anyway ... media bias, dont you just love it?
