FL attorney general rumor: revote in Palm Beach "solidly" supported by FL law

[Nathan Newman]

Can't say why I know this (although I may have more soon) but not only is it
sold law, there at least one example of a GOP Congressional candidate filing
suit to force a hand recount.  There are a number of other cases as well,
including one that is real explosive for the GOP.

Hope to have more on this soon.

a reasonably sound, second-order rumor/report: a friend tells me that a
friend of
hers who works in the FL attorney general's office was called in at 5:45
Wednesday morning to work with a group on an opinion regarding whether a
revote
in Palm Beach should be called.  Their group found FL law "solidly" supports
a
revote.  The person I spoke with had forgotten the argument, but when I
mentioned
that I'd seen a piece at the LATimes website in which two lawyers said that
FL
law specifies that ballots have a particular format that the Palm Beach form
violates, she said she thought that was the rationale.
