Presidential Scandal

Ah yes, this is where its gonna start getting ugly. As most people know by now the US presidential election is currently in limbo awaiting a re-count in Florida. Well it looks like 19,000 votes got disqualified because of a 'faulty ballot'. On top of that, 3 lawsuits have been filed in federal court by voters who were deprived of their voting rights due to the allegedly confusing ballots. Oh thats not all, get this:

The NAACP has asked the Justice Department to investigate alleged voting irregularities involving minorities in Florida. [...] At least 50 people went door to door Wednesday in Palm Beach County, asking residents to sign a petition for a new presidential election.

Somehow I think no matter what happens, half the country is gonna be pissed off. Nothing like a presidential scandal when we havent even decided on the president yet.
