The Butterfly Ballot you show is 12 fucking years old! At least be current with the voting concerns you attempt to address.

It's like nothing ever works properly or on time down here. Is it maybe cuz we're part or Bermuda Triangle?

I'm confident Obama has it. Its a procedural problem. Less than .5% margin of victory triggers an automatic recount. Margin now is just over that, but there are tens of thousands of absentee and provisional ballots to count by hand to determine the actual margin of victory. All those ballots are from Miami-Dade, so there's no chance Romney wins.

Sure he could send help and speed up the process...but he will not do this...

He will be damned and punish those voters who dared to stand in line for many hours just to cast their vote and for demanding to vote early....He wishes to deny a Florida victory for their endeavors; deny President Obama a full victory.

Let 'em take their time and count it right. I'm confident Florida will remain part of the blue states of reality. Life is a lot better today knowing that we're not having to rely on a Florida recount (or lack of one) to determine the election.
