Well, this situation has certainly developed into an interesting legal question, hasn't it? This quote from a news story about the Florida law illustrates that opinions don't matter much, there is specific law that empowers and encourages judges to rectify electoral mistakes, especially when they might affect the outcome.
"Judges have power to overturn elections
WILLIAM MARCH
of The Tampa Tribune
TAMPA - Under a 1998 court ruling, Florida judges have broad authority to invalidate elections or order new elections in cases in which fraud, or even unintentional error, results in flawed outcome.
``The criteria are very broad, almost completely undefined, and they grant state judges a great deal of discretion,´´ said Steve Gey, a constitutional law expert at the Florida State University College of Law.
Gey said if irregularities are found in Tuesday's vote for president, proving they affected the outcome wouldn't be hard, because the race is so close.
...The standards say the judge can overturn an election if there was fraud or irregularities that ``adversely affect the sanctity of the ballot and the integrity of the election.´´
Because the election was so close, and could so easily be affected by any proven irregularity, Gey said, ``that last criteria is almost a giveaway.´´
Unintentional errors as well as fraud can qualify, Gey said.
If the election were found to be invalid, Gey said, the likely remedy would be a new election. It could be held just in the county where the irregularities occurred, or statewide, depending on the circumstances."
