Stop the vote in Pennsylvania but keep counting in Arizona. It’s a Maxwell’s Demon approach. Open the door when it helps me, close the door when it helps the other guy.
That’s probably why the Supremes stopped the recounts in Bush v Gore, the Gore camp wanted to keep looking for errors but only in the counties where they thought it would help them. But also the votes had already been counted (and recounted). And there was the original Florida Man, some guy named Hanging Chad? And the phone call and the retraction. Democrats to this day take it as gospel that Gore was robbed. That does not bode well for half the country moving on from this election.

Set in the fading days of the old west with territories becoming states and deciding who to elect as their representatives. Should it be Jimmy Stewart the righteous lawyer, or Lee Marvin the outlaw gang leader? The old fashioned idea that you sent the brightest and best educated person to Washington to represent you. Hah! Politicians are not held in great esteem today, and we would probably vote for Liberty Valance. I assume everyone has seen the movie. It’s an old John Ford western, in fact he shot it in B&W, but it’s a must see. Look at the cast – Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, Lee Marvin, Vera Miles, Andy Devine, Edmond O’Brien, John Caradine, Lee Van Cleef.
