Thanks for the welcome. My point is only that counting the Provisional is not a recount rather only part of the original count. Regardless if we expect it to change the outcome or not (which we know it won't) the original counting of all legitimate votes is the key to any fair election. I am not disagreeing with you I am just saying it a bit differently.
The main problem I have with provisional ballots is the danger of fraud. In theory all a person had to do, would be to front up at every polling place in the country and demand to vote. Who knows if they will be caught or not? Provisionals ballots was just another demorat grab at votes, along with motor voter.
Also, in my humble opinion, anyone too stupid to remember the precinct in which they are supposed to vote, should not be deciding who it is that will be running the most powerful nation on Earth.
