Some Gore supporters in Palm Beach County said they feared they mistakenly voted for Buchanan. Gore carried the county by more than 110,000 votes, but the 3,407 votes for Buchanan were by far the most of any Florida county, and almost 20 percent of his total vote in the state. Republicans noted that the ballot was approved by Democrat Theresa LePore, the county supervisor of elections. Former Secretary of State James A. Baker III, dispatched by Bush to oversee the GOP monitoring team in Florida, angrily told reporters in Tallahassee that Palm Beach County voters' rights were upheld, even if their ballots were thrown out. ``The ballot in Palm Beach County was approved by a Democratic elected official,'' he said. ``There were no complaints until after the election.'' _______________________________________________________ The bottom line is there are processes in place that were followed. The time to challenge the ballot was before the election and there was plenty of opportunity to do that. You cannot change the process after the fact because you do not like the way it came out. One thing else. Buchanan received the third highest percent of votes in palm beach in 96 of all the voting precincts in the us.
