Recounting Votes Sucks
The presidential election of the year 2000 was a big mess. Thanks to our beautiful state of Florida, the presidential race was almost jeopardized. Many people believe that the recount was rigged by Jeb Bush, who was the Governor of Florida at the time, in order to benefit his brother. They have now started the system of early voting in Florida in order to avoid mishaps such as the 2000 recount. Do you think a program such as this will benefit the count in the present election?

Of course a early vote system will help smooth things out in the long run. One of hte main points of the recount was that many people didn't have time to go and vote; tehy all felt jipped out of there chance to voice their opinions. Maybe, if the early vote was intact in that presidential race, the outcome would have been different.

I think the approach will work in the future. The reason for the recount was due to the disorganization of the ballots. I also agree that there should have been early voting. Maybe this could have changed something.

it probably would and it seems that it has. but none the less if the margin is big enough it doesnt even matter about a couple of extra votes one way or another winner takes all. but early voting would be a great benefit and since Jeb Bush wasnt ian the office is seems this election was smooth sailing.

Early voting helped out a lot in this election. A lot pf people took advantage of the opportunity. Early voting helped benefit the people that had to work or go to school during the hours of voting.
