Residents sue for new election in Palm Beach as world waits for Florida recount

TALLAHASSEE -- With the closest presidential election in American history hinging on a recount in all 67 Florida counties, state elections officials say it would take two days to re-check the numbers -- and even by then the world may not know whether George W. Bush or Al Gore is president.

Meanwhile, three Palm Beach County residents filed a lawsuit today asking that a new election be held in the county because of irregularities in the presidential ballot.

The lawsuit, filed in Palm Beach County Circuit Court against the county's vote canvassing board and election officials, claims the listing of presidential candidates on two pages confused supporters of Vice President Al Gore, who fear they accidentally cast their votes for Reform Party Candidate Pat Buchanan because of the way the punch-card ballot was laid out.


Yeah, and I'm sure the Nader voters will be next... they accidently voted for Nader instead of Gore lol
