We will never know the will of the voters in FL because the election system was corrupted by those who run it. And who might those be? Not independents. Democrats and Republicans who have litttle interest in making the system more reliable. There only interests are in making the system appear reliable and to keep a professionally responsible independent operation out.
Have we changed anything having learned in FL how bad the system operates? No. Those punch card ballots are still being used. Are the party election officials now replacing those worn punch holes and repeatedly cleaning out the punch holes? We don't even know. Although there was talk of reparing the election system, all that has long since subsided. I believe there are some Philly locations (and maybe also in Abingtion) where the election system still keeps breaking down.
All The Economist has done is demonstrate (by making a correction) that we don't really know and will probably never know who won the election. That same statement should be reported everywhere else because it is still accurate.
Had the court system been honest, all voters in FL would have had an immediate relection - because the tally was that corrupted by those running the system. Also adding to the corrupt was that lady Sec of State with big makeup who is a classic example of a partisan politician. Those running the system are still running the system. It is not operated by the people. It is run by the Democratic and Republican parties.
