is being made because of an intense distrust - among americans - of their
democratic institutions.

But they are the "free" world. LOL
With Guantanamo, the patriot's act, police brutality, etc. Just another
police state.

I live in australia. We would be unlucky to queue 30 minutes to vote.
We know how many people are going to vote so we staff the polling
booths accordingly. I struggle to understand how such a simple supply
and demand equation can so elude so many american voting authorities.
Mind you we have ONE electoral authority while I am guessing you have
somewhere between 50 and 200? A bit like you have 7000 police forces and
we have 7.

They were hanging back from counting in case florida went down to the

And think about it... doesnt that just have that delicious taste of
truth about it?
The Florida voting process seemed to deliberately be trying to
suppress the vote by making the process inefficient, resulting in
long lines that could take up to seven or eight hours to reach the
voting booth. LOL

Pete, can't Florida get her voting system together? LOL
I'm glad the election didn't come down to Florida's 29 electoral
votes; because, I'm pretty sure the Republican controlled state
would have followed along the lines of the 2000 election that put
GWB in office.
Finally; three hours ago:
http://elections.huffingtonpost.com/2012/results
What would Texas have done, given that close a result?
Perhaps the Florida officials responsible for running the elections
should consult with an expert on the subject to find opportunities
how the Florida voting system might be improved. I'm sure there
are some fine experts, as the other 49 states, including NY and NJ,
that were ravaged by hurricane Sandy, got it right.
Ducked the question, as usual. You don't know about your own state,
do you.
What does the election being close have to do with how long it take
to count the votes? LOL It should only delay calling the election
by projection, until all votes are counted, which should have
occurred election night. No recount was involved.

Last resort is one of my favorites.
