Too much is at stake here NOT to repoll anyone confused by the "butterfly 
ballot,"  if not the whole damn state!  Gore has won the popular vote and
(without Fla.) the majority of the remaining electoral college votes.  It
would be a damn shame if George W. Bush got into office because people
accidentally voted for someone other than the person they wanted.  As an
anti-Bush person (I voted for Nader, but am all for the lesser of two evils
at this point), I would be pissed if the shoe were on the other foot, and
(hypothetically) Bush votes had erroneously gone to Nader, but I would
expect nothing less than the voice of the people to prevail.  Isn't that, in
essence, what a democracy is about?
