The law gives the right for a recount. Statewide, of course.

Why would anyone want a recount only in counties they'd already WON?

Does that make any sense whatsoever?

It's a can of worms to launch a lawsuit like that.

Say what you want about Richard Nixon, but he was faced with the same 
decision: to litigate or not litigate a razor close election. He chose 
not to.

Winning such suits, after your opponent was already declared the 
winner... well, that won't gain you a damned thing.

Once you're willing to litigate the outcome, no one wins. You lose. Your 
opponent loses. And We the People lose.

Thanks to Gore's blind ambitions and unbridled conceit, we all lost.
