The way I calculate, this would give Bush an additional 2,500 vote lead. Gore better quit while the vote is still close, IMO.

MIAMI -- At least 445 Florida felons voted illegally Nov. 7, casting
more doubt over the sharply contested presidential election, a
newspaper investigation found.
A review of nearly half a million ballots cast in 12 Florida
counties found that hundreds of felons voted despite the state's
multimillion-dollar effort to purge dead and illegal voters from
lists of registered voters, The Miami Herald reported in its Friday
editions.
This could mean more than 5,000 felons cast ballots if the
pattern holds up across the state. Nearly six million people voted
in Florida's 67 counties.
Most of the votes, nearly 75 percent, were cast by registered
Democrats.
