This whole thing is a FARCE and makes me sick to my stomach.
EVERYONE has a responsibility to make sure their vote counts. I beleive that EACH voter has the RIGHT AND RESPONSIBILITY to make sure that their ballot truly reflects their wishes and is true and accurate. I think that the many and selective hand recounts are ridiculous. Any ballot that is not fully punched for one candidate/team per office should be thrown out and invalidated.
I also beleive that there should be a NATIONAL ballot standard for all national elections, but I guess there needs to be "studies" done on that issue. A national standard would sweep away all the hodgepodge of state laws and procedures and we would not be in this current mess.
I agree with the earlier posting that points out that all other offices, even federal, are determined by popular vote so why should the presidency be any different.
just my "2" cents
