So much for Obama's pledge to
see that every legal vote gets counted.

Huh? "Open Market" is a reputable news organization??? It's newser is registered to

The Competitive Enterprise Institute:

http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Competitive_Enterprise_Institute

"CEI belongs to various conservative alliances, including the Alliance for America, Get Government Off Our Backs, Townhall.com, the National Consumer Coalition (a pro-corporate front group headed by Frances B. Smith, the wife of CEI founder Fred Smith), and the Environmental Education Working Group (EEWG), a national umbrella group for organizations working to undermine environmental education in schools. It is linked to the UK-based rightwing think tank, the International Policy Network, via shared staff and an identical US contact address. It also sponsors several other subsidiary organizations, including:

The Center for Private Conservation, a green-sounding front group that opposes environmental regulations by claiming that 'free market' solutions work better.
The Cooler Heads Coalition, chaired by former CEI director Marlo Lewis and directed by Myron Ebell, CEI's Director of Global Warming and International Environmental Policy. The Cooler Heads Coalition was formed on May 6, 1997, 'to dispel the myths of global warming by exposing flawed economic, scientific and risk analysis.' In March 2001, the nonprofit Clean Air Trust named Ebell its 'clean air villain of the month,' citing his 'ferocious lobbying charge to persuade President Bush to reverse his campaign pledge to control electric utility emissions of carbon dioxide.'
Michael Sanera's Center for Environmental Education Research, based in Washington, D.C."

So much for objective information from yourself.

President Obama (you will never respect his office) mentioned he wants every vote counted in the disputed U.S. Senate race in Minnesota. I don't know if he has weighed in on this NY 20 election. Could you please provide a quote? I'm certain he, also, wanted every valid vote counted in Florida 2000, but the GOP contended doing so would cause great harm to George W. Bush's election bid.
