Stop the vote in Pennsylvania but keep counting in Arizona. It’s a
Maxwell’s Demon approach. Open the door when it helps me, close the
door when it helps the other guy.
That’s probably why the Supremes stopped the recounts in Bush v Gore,
the Gore camp wanted to keep looking for errors but only in the
counties where they thought it would help them. But also the votes
had already been counted (and recounted). And there was the original
Florida Man, some guy named Hanging Chad? And the phone call and the
retraction.
Democrats to this day take it as gospel that Gore was robbed. That
does not bode well for half the country moving on from this election.

In Michigan we're demanding a recount. In Wisconsin we're demanding a
decount. In Georgia it's opposites day.

Somehow I’m reminded of the movie The Man Who Shot
Liberty Valance. Set in the fading days of the old west
with territories becoming states and deciding who to
elect as their representatives. Should it be Jimmy
Stewart the righteous lawyer, or Lee Marvin the outlaw
gang leader? The old fashioned idea that you sent the
brightest and best educated person to Washington to
represent you. Hah! Politicians are not held in great
esteem today, and we would probably vote for Liberty
Valance. I assume everyone has seen the movie. It’s an
old John Ford western, in fact he shot it in B&W, but
it’s a must see. Look at the cast – Jimmy Stewart, John
Wayne, Lee Marvin, Vera Miles, Andy Devine, Edmond
O’Brien, John Caradine, Lee Van Cleef.
