      Voids are only counted if they can swing it. The hanging chad votes were technically marked void even though the voter wasn't doing it intentionally.

      If the margin is 1% and there are 5% voids, they could probably do something in the court to audit the voids and see if any of them were just poorly filled out but clearly voting for someone.

      Then again, using the hanging chads as evidence kinda shows how arbitrary it is when it gets to that point.
