Both sides have rough day Republicans have expressed hope that the Texas governor could net an additional 500 votes from the 1,527 overseas ballots that were set aside over the weekend. Mr. Bush already leads Mr. Gore by 930 votes statewide. In another setback to the Gore team, a Palm Beach Circuit Court threw out lawsuits yesterday from Democrats who had complained that the ballot was illegal because it was too confusing. The so-called "butterfly ballot" argument had been one of the pillars of the Gore victory strategy because Democrats believe hundreds of would-be Gore supporters inadvertently selected Reform Party candidate Patrick J. Buchanan. Democrats also expressed frustration that the hand recount under way in Palm Beach has not netted as many votes for the vice president as expected. Election officials said there was "very little change" in the tally, which began yesterday with a net gain of 12 votes for Mr. Bush. In Broward County, Mr. Gore had picked up 118 votes by midday yesterday. washtimes.com
