Hand recount overturns election

A hand recount overturned an apparent Republican victory in Franklin County, IN. Apparently, people using the 'vote straight Democratic ticket' feature had their votes actually cast as a straight Libertarian ticket. The Libertarians got better than 7% of the votes in that county, which caused Fidlar to find a glitch in their software.

Luckily, this was optical scanning, not touch-screen technology, so the hand recount was possible.
