The recount is only beginning. It was other stuff happening first.
We've a state law that automatically generates a recount at a certain
percentage of difference in vote count. Norm was suggesting that Al
should just give up so we could be done with it and get on with
business. But that was before Al closed the gap to 206 votes. I wonder
if he still feels the same way, and I wonder what he'll say when Al
comes out the winner (that's the speculation of a bunch of university
profs, not necessarily my opinion). Stay tuned. :-)
