Actually there WAS a hand recount done in Seminole county, which voted for Bush over Gore by 55% to 43% -- people may remember that Seminole county was the last one to report because of the time consuming nature of its hand recount. The hand recount of selected ballots (presumably only those that showed no votes for president) in Seminole county, resulted in an extra 384 votes for Bush and 286 votes for Gore. As expected, the hand recount vote percentages are very close to the overall actual vote percentages for Bush and Gore, which seems to validate the hand recount method. Interestingly, the Bush campaign did not object to the hand recount in Seminole county. Also interestingly, the extra 98 votes that this recount produced represent one third of the current unofficial lead of Bush over Gore in Florida. Kyros
