Umm, count the votes?
All of them. Either include the late absentee ballots from Dem leaning counties or exclude them from Repo leaning counties. As long as you use the same set of criteria for both.
There ya go. One of the many scenarios available.
Another might be, no roadblocks in predominatly black voting areas to scare away voters.
Another might be to let eligible voters vote instead of removing them illegaly from the rolls.
Another might be to let the recount suits proceed through the courts(who started that mess anyway? Oh yeah, team Bush sued to stop the recounts before they started). Saying the legislature was ready to bypass the courts is no doubt accurate. Just not complete. You don't know what the outcome might have been.
Another might be to keep the Repo out-of-state operatives from starting a "voter riot" to stop the recount.
Another might be....

You said name one.
Then ignored the several I did name, while continuing the Beepish mantra of "how many times do we count these?".
I'd guess a good answer would be, till it's done.
(Eagerly awaiting expected response. I got a bet with myself what it'll be.)

each method you describe doesnt get gore into the whitehouse
the only way gore could have won was if the buchanan votes were correctly cast. Democrats lost the election because democrats voted for the wrong person. Now I was amused to watch the fooferaw over the "well this slight indentation somewhere on the card next to the grocery list means a vote for gore" that isnt counting votes.

Boxley said: um, they did repeatedly in all counties Wow, you mean they reinstated all the people purged from the polls, took down the barricades, and had a revote, multiple times? Must've been in the World Daily News, 'cause that sure didn't make my paper. ;) [image|/forums/images/warning.png|0|This is sarcasm...] Nobody wins in a butter eating contest

The Constitution doesn't say ...
that the President should be elected democratically. Should we abandon that too?

the constitution explicitly states how the president is
elected and guess what a popular vote isnt anywhere on there. A tyranny of the majority is to be feared as much as a tyranny of the minority which is what we have now.
