The Editorial Board: Count Them Properly

A disputed list of twenty thousand voters, a cleaning fee that turns into a chore list, and a Colombian mine the rescuers couldn't reach force the table to ask who pays when a rule gets the person wrong. Reject the Justice Department's blanket stop on California's listed ballots and send eligibility challenges to a judge with evidence about each voter. Back Airbnb's limit on professional cleaning chores, with a chance to correct a listing before its search visibility is cut. Open a faster licensing route for independent Colombian miners, with operators the state cannot verify or inspect left unlicensed.
