Lawsuits have been filed asking for a new election in Palm Beach 
County.  The outcome of this election could very well hinge on 
those lawsuits.  

If it were just that the ballots were confusing, I'd be unhappy but
move on with life and the election as it happened.  There are,
however, reports from NPR that people who voted in error *caught their
mistakes* at the polling place some of the time, before they had put
the ballot in the box, and were refused the right to do it over;
that's illegal, and *that* has to be remedied, when it's this close.
