Hello,
On the Electoral Vote website (http://www.electoral-vote.com) the webmaster stated that there will be a recount in Ohio! No, it isn't initiated by the Democrats, but by the Green and Libertarian parties. The website of the Green Party does mention the initiative (http://www.votecobb.org) even though most mainstream media outlets haven't picked it up, apparently. I did see it mentioned briefly somewhere near the end of an article in the Boston Globe (http://www.boston.com/news/politics...11/16/ohio_has_clearer_picture_of_ballots_now):
So, what are your opinions about this? And in what way might it change the outcome? What will happen if Ohio gets overturned?
C ya!

P.S. As if 1 recount isn't enough, Nader is demanding a recount in New Hampshire, questioning the accuracy of the optical scanning voting machines: http://www.boston.com/news/local/ne...estion_accuracy_of_optical_vote_scan_machines

In another twist to the tally, a statewide recount of the presidential vote appears inevitable after a pair of third-party candidates said they have collected enough money to pay for it.
The recount would be conducted after the election results are certified.
The candidates said they are not trying to overturn Bush's victory in Ohio, but just want to ensure that all votes were counted properly in the face of concerns about Election Day irregularities.
"Our bottom line is to stand up for the integrity of the voting process because the voting process is the heart of the democratic process," said Blair Bobier, spokesman for Green Party candidate David Cobb.
