We have had a partial recount in certain selected districts. This failed to change the outcome. So now Gore seeks a full recount. If that fails to change the outcome, he will probably call for another selective recount. If that fails to change the outcome, then another full recount with different rules for the chads. If that fails to change the outcome .... Since the result is smaller than the margin of error, if you keep doing it over and over and over and over with different rules each time, Gore is sure to get lucky sooner or later. Then it will be a confrontation between the Florida executive, and the Florida judiciary.
