6. They obviously weren't allowed to examine undervotes.

And the precincts were fudged either as a way to keep the undervotes from being counted, or in addition to simply not examining them by hand at all.

Stark has fishy undervote figures. How could a recount miss the fact that in CANTON CITY 4-B, 10% of ballots had no vote for president?
There is a whole group of precincts with high undervotes, and guess what? They are mostly Democratic. In fact, most of them are precincts where Kerry won by a large number in the March Primary. Try to figure that one out.

Of the 11 precincts where undervote was over 5%, Kerry won or tied with all Democrats combined in all but 2 in March. Which is odd, because he failed to do so in 176 of 364 precincts.

But what do you expect when you have a BoE that is complicit in attempting to avoid a full hand recount at all costs.

Note that Kerry won Stark, and Gore lost it. Still doesn;t mean it was clean, though.
