"So I see you are answering my question in a roundabout way. You say the court "can" interpret the "subjective intent" of the voter with the pencil mark on the chad. To what degree can they determine this? What if it's a light pencil dot. Or a medium pencil dot. "
Pencils are not used on the punch cards in question.
"hey, I think I accidently voted for Buchanan".
That is not the issue at this point. The issue is not incorrect voter choice. Just if the ballot has been punched for Gore or Bush and uncounted because the machine can not read the card. The old machines can not reject the physical ballot like the other counties in flordia. Many other counties had fast hand counts of machine rejected ballots only. Not possible in the disputed counties.
