You really need to read the court cases that came out of Florida. Between
the Democrats illegally throwing out overseas ballots, to the illegal
partial recount, to the illegal changing of the counting standards, you will
find that the Democrats do not hold the moral high ground.

We had 11 Judges and Gore's Florida Campaign Chair, who found that the
manual recounts in Palm Beach County and Miami-Dade were inaccurate because
they illegally changed the counting standard.

Turned out that the manual recount was susceptible to Democrats illegally
changing the law on what defined a legal vote in Florida.

And that was proven to be true.
