Bush Closing in on Popular Vote Majority

While the media breathlessly reports each new vote added to
Vice President Al Gore's column in the Florida recount,
reporters have been all but silent on the tens of thousands
of new votes that have been added to President-elect George
Bush's nationwide tally in the last 24 hours.

When the TV networks decided early Wednesday they were
wrong to call the election for Bush based on the close vote
in the Sunshine state, Gore led Bush by 222,127 votes
nationally.

But in new vote tallies published Thursday morning, Bush
has closed the gap considerably. With most states still not
finished counting, the New York Post reports Gore's popular
vote margin is down to 97,773 votes.

Absentee ballots, many of which are still uncounted, could
theoretically vault Bush into the lead.

California's million-plus absentee voters were not expected
to be tallied till after election day. New Yorkers'
absentee envelopes weren't even scheduled to be opened till
Thursday. And Florida's absentee vote count may not be finished till next week.
