Felons decide election:
Argument over. Try a new topic.
The first thing visible in Prof. Rick Hasen's office on the third floor of the UCI School of Law is a voting booth just inside the door - one from Florida actually used during the hotly contested presidential election of 2000.
That's because election law, Hasens primary field of expertise, took off with that election, he explains, after the U.S. Supreme Court refused to order a recount in Florida, and George W. Bush defeated Al Gore by a narrow margin. "In 2000, the area exploded," Hasen says. "Most major law schools now have someone in the field and there are competing textbooks."
If I remember correctly, the selective recount was refused by the USSC UNANIMOUSLY! An entire recount was possible.
Anybody keen on this?
