Actually, C, they *have* been counted and recounted. Mostly by *machines,* which roughly
speaking should have the same margin of error across the entire state. I'd wager that there's
NEVER been an election anywhere where every single vote was counted and tallied properly; but
by having a near-universal "instrument" with which to measure, that's more fair than what is
currently going on. This "selective sampling" of the vote dataset taints the results --- no
scientist could ever publish anything based on a measurement technique like this selective
hand-counting.

The part that's being left out is that the original counts are the ONLY fair counts of the
Florida vote that have been done!
