The specific case Yepsen is concerned about, Florida congressional distri=
ct 13
(unlucky number?) is still too close to call, but the Republican is ahead=
 by
approx 400 votes, with 18,000 voters not selecting anyone. So it favors
Republicans, but still Yepsen is concerned. =


It would be interesting to see the undercounts by precinct - did voters
neglect to vote for this race only in certain precincts? on certain types=
 of
voting hardware? Will Katherine Harris eventually go to jail for tamperin=
g
with the voting machines? She threw quite a fit when she didn't get the
nomination, perhaps because she had already invested a lot of effort towa=
rds
fixing the election.

I'd love to be the disinterested third party software engineer who
reverse-engineers the code in the voting machines to determine if there w=
as
fraud. I have 15 years experience writing software.
