Gregoire sworn in

Washington State has a new govenor, modulo court challenges. I hate to say it, but the WSJ editorial is right; it isn't wise to fight for a revote. This isn't the Ukraine. It's easy to prove this election was a mess; proving it a sham is another matter entirely. (Of course, if the election weren't so close, probably no one would have noticed the mess.) How to deal with the doubt caused by having the second, manual recount overturn the results of the initial count and first recount? Prevent it from happening again: perhaps the election law should be changed - after all, machines are more accurate counters than people.
