Duval’s bid faltered with a Rae’s Creek bogey on 13 while Els Roberts and Woods faded.

It explains limitations: not all crimes use auto loading pistols, criminals can deface parts, revolvers and shotguns yield weaker traces, and factory sample linkage and cost pose obstacles.

A conventional close race is more probable with Bush likely prevailing in Sun Belt and Mountain states, while Gore dominates California and New York. The broader Rust Belt swing remains pivotal to reaching 270 electoral votes.
