Early Sunday, a spokeswoman said the Palm Beach board has examined 4,037
ballots — fewer than half of some 9,500 ballots in dispute because
voting machines could not clearly read a presidential choice.

The canvassing board said it
would send partial results to the
state if it fails to complete the
hand count by 5 p.m. Sunday,
though state canvassers haven't
decided whether to accept
partial totals.................Meanwhile, the Miami Herald reported Sunday that seven convicted
felons — three Democrats, two Republicans and two independents —
were able to vote in Palm Beach County because election officials
failed to purge voter rolls of felons as they are required to do under
state law. The paper said thousands of felons, who are not allowed
to vote in Florida, remained on the ballot statewide. A Palm Beach
county spokeswoman declined comment on the story.
