AP Top News at 10:10 a.m. EST Friday, Nov. 17, 2000 Nov 17, 2000 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- Judge: Fla. Can Reject Late Votes TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - A Florida judge said today the state does not have to accept hand counted presidential votes tallied after the deadline imposed by a Republican election official. Al Gore hopes the ongoing counts will turn up enough votes to overturn George W. Bush's 300-vote lead in Florida. Gore was expected to appeal. Palm Beach Officials Resume Hand Recount WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Election workers today resumed the process of hand counting 462,350 ballots as requested by Al Gore's campaign. Palm Beach County has been at the center of the election dispute in part because critics said the design of its punch ballot was confusing. A hearing is scheduled for later Friday in Palm Beach Circuit Court on the issue of the ballot and the legality of a revote. Circuit Judge Jorge Labarga said he wanted to hear constitutional arguments about whether a second vote could even be a legal option. Bush has a 300-vote lead over Gore in Florida.
