CDR: RE: The cause of uncertainty in the election outcome.
However the recounts work out I think it's pretty clear that in the statitical sense we have a tie. The uncertainties are far larger than the measured difference. Even the national totals are within about 0.1%. This is probably 1 or 2 orders of magnitude less than the percentage of disqualified ballots. So much for the significance of the popular vote. Send the damn thing to Congress already. Mike

Plus or minus the noise caused by vote fraud in either direction...
