Or would it be a 1%-10% sample of the total number of ballots like they typically do in recounts. And who decides where the sample comes from? Agreed that this seems a little premature. Shouldn't they wait until the elections officials give the "OFFICIAL" results in 7-14 days? At least then you have something certified and verifiable to check against instead of just the fact that you think something is fishy and you want them to count again and screw it up even more by leaving something off the tally sheet. You know the Bushies have a cocaine money past...wouldn't it be funny if Hajjar used to deal with them? Just a thought... If anything, at least this could stall things a bit and stir the pot while the Clean Elections lawsuit moves forward and the reactions to being served perhaps makes some headlines, but I doubt it. You have to love how they named it...Help America Vote Act. Hanging Chads never looked so good!!
