What the heck is happening in our country if we can't have an election without lawyers?

In the old days there werernt' lawyers on standby and then lawsuits after every election like there is now. For example, the Carter-Ford election of '76 was very close, tipping a few thousand votes in a few key states there would have changed it, but there were no recounts and no lawyers then.

Maybe this is how elections are going to be. Never final until the lawyers have weighed in. Election Day is not the end of a campaign anymore, it's just the beginning of a new phase of the battle.
