>>And, as I proposed a few days (weeks?) ago, there should be an independent and
professional team going through the process. Democratic (or Republican) votes
counted by Democrats is sheer nonsense. This would hold true for Florida or any
other state. Somehow I think professional integrity is better than partisan
integrity, whether political or regional partisanship. A<>E<>R <<<

Judicial Watch Begins Its Own Florida Recount
CNSNews.com
Tuesday, Nov. 28, 2000
The conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch has the green light to begin its own
count of disputed ballots in this month's presidential election in Palm Beach.
Palm Beach Circuit Judge Jorge La Barga gave Judicial Watch access to count the
votes. He cited a Florida state law that allows citizens to inspect ballots even
after the certification deadline has passed.
Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris certified the election Sunday night,
giving Florida's 25 electoral votes to Republican George W. Bush.
Judicial Watch officials say more than 400 citizens from around the country have
volunteered to help the group count "disputed" and "other ballots" such as absentee
military votes.
Johnson, Lambert and Co., a public accounting firm, will oversee Judicial Watch's
effort because the group says the accounting firm has "expertise both in counting
ballots and fraud."
Besides Palm Beach, Judicial Watch plans to conduct an independent analysis of
disputed and other ballots throughout Florida.
Judicial Watch is best known for the legal challenges it has mounted against the
Clinton administration. It has often represented individuals who say they have been
harmed by Clinton or his White House. But the group's chairman says the Florida
recount is not politically motivated.
"It is important that an independent group, nonpartisan in nature, provide certified
numbers for the American people. The last few weeks have shown that one can't trust
partisans on the ground to count the votes," Judicial Watch Chairman and General
Counsel Larry Klayman said in a statement.
Klayman is in Florida on behalf of the effort and was not available for further
comment.
Judicial Watch also will use, where feasible, statistical and accounting techniques
to test the accuracy of the machine counts.
Despite the official certification by the state of Florida in favor of Bush, the
group decided to go ahead with the recount anyway.
"Even though there was official certification of George W. Bush as the winner of
Florida's electoral votes, Al Gore will contest this election. In this unusual
circumstance, it becomes all the more necessary to have an independent, nonpartisan
count.
"Judicial Watch will make its recount results available to the American public, the
courts and others who require an independent measure of the voting in Florida,"
Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement.

The libertarian therefore considers one of his prime educational
tasks is to spread the demystification and desanctification of the
State among its hapless subjects. His task is to demonstrate
repeatedly and in depth that not only the emperor but even the
"democratic" State has no clothes; that all governments subsist
by exploitive rule over the public; and that such rule is the reverse
of objective necessity. He strives to show that the existence of
taxation and the State necessarily sets up a class division between
the exploiting rulers and the exploited ruled. He seeks to show that
the task of the court intellectuals who have always supported the State
has ever been to weave mystification in order to induce the public to
accept State rule and that these intellectuals obtain, in return, a
share in the power and pelf extracted by the rulers from their deluded
subjects.
