On Thursday, Bush campaign Chairman Donald Evans told a news conference
that in making such charges Democrats neglect ''to point out that in 1996, a
year with much lower turnout, a similar number of 14,872 ballots were
invalidated for double counting in Palm Beach County.''

Roberts, a Democrat, took issue with Evans' figures saying he was effectively
counting apples and oranges in one example, but only apples in the other.

Roberts said the 14,872 invalid ballots in 1996 included those that were
overvoted along with those that failed to cast any vote for president. If the
same two groups were lumped together this year the number swells from
19,120 to 29,702.
