Can you use a Force point to reroll a successful save?

If you can FP reroll an attack to try for a crit, you can FP reroll a save for a better (or 'worse') number. What you can't do is voluntarily fail a save without rolling.

To be clear... http://www.bloomilk.com/Glossary?Id=26 (emphasis added) Quote:Force points
Certain characters can manipulate the Force to create special effects. These characters have a Force rating, a number of points that they can spend to use Force powers, to reroll any die roll (even a natural 1 on an attack), or to move 2 extra squares as part of a move. Once a Force point is spent, the character can’t spend it again during the skirmish.
A character can spend Force points only once per turn. Sometimes, though, a character can spend Force points on other characters’ turns, such as to reroll a failed save. In this case, a character can end up spending Force points more than once per round. .

FWIW - I didn't ever do that with my squad in this year's Gen Con championship. I knew I could, but Mara is a commander so she doesn't get the free reroll via Governor's CE, nor does she get the -2 to save rolls. She also starts with 0 force and is always force starved.
