18. Great point! Can't have a fair recount with dishonest county officials
that hate the fact they have to do a recount. Good gravy, these people have no sense of responsibility. I don't know where it is but earlier there was a link to a Daily Kos summary of observers experiences in all different counties. These county boards just vote on whatever they feel like and call it a good recount. They also seem to call the SOS office any time they are asked to do something they don't want to. Suddenly the SOS office says they don't have to. And some don't let the observers talk. We need 2 or 3 lawyers at every county to file lawsuits every few minutes as the county officials try to side-step every little requirment. With corrupt officials in a lot of the counties there doesn't appear to be much we can do but pick a few at a time and sue.
