There's something wrong in the US if we can't count votes - or am I mistaken? I mean, we can measure the velocity of sub-atomic particles to the nanosecond, but we can't count up several thousand votes properly without having a nervous breakdown.
Why don't we swallow some pride, with a side dish of humble pie, and consult with European countries, our fellow democracies that have had long experience in polling, and ask for their best practice. During the 2000 Florida fiasco the news was filled with the remarks of Europeans simply astonished at the spectacle of Americans unable to conduct an accurate election.
But I'm an optimist. Not only can we do it, but we will have to do it in order to reach the next stage in our evolution as a society.
No options there.
