Yes, CdL did ask for a recount, now that is the only cliffhanger issue.

Absolutely, there are half a million votes declared null...so 25 kvotes is just 5 % .. a long shot but not impossible.

We need gondi to explain us if the ballots are kept or thrown away (as in Spain). If they are thrown away they can only check the official reports...and then only a human mistake int he transcription could change the result.

What's the difference with Florida is that this time the ones asking for recount are the ones more likely to having had suppressed the vote of the other side, so what are they dreaming about...

BTW, are you now residing in Italy? You seemed so involved in it all as if. (I possibly missed again something from ET's social life!)

"Unfortunately not so many friends in France..."

I have a solution: come to the May 20th Paris EuroTribe Meet-up !
