Rusty silver linings

[Tex]

Scott Johnson of Powerline critiques the forgoing article on the constitutionality of the Minnesota recount. He disagrees that it was unconstitutional, but agrees on other points.

I agree with Professor Paulsen that the Canvassing Board and the Court may have erred on occasion during the recount. I emphatically agree with Professor Paulsen's derogation of the Coleman campaign's performance during the recount. See my post "Overtime in the Minnesota Senate election." But I don't yet see the constitutional defects that Professor Paulsen has identified.
