I wonder why Gore is pinning his hopes on the Miami-Dade hand recount of the 10000 under votes if what you suggest is true?

Gore does not pin his hopes on Miami-Dade entirely. I'd rather follow the election news from "the rule of the court" rather than listen to personal commentary and interpretation from other SI Investors. By listening to the courts, comments made by other SI members about the election don't bother me. Hope this helps-Mephisto

********************************************************

"With at least 42 election suits pending statewide, more litigation sprouted by the hour. Among the issues added to
the mix:

Democrats sued the Martin County canvassing board asking to throw out all the county's 9,773 absentee ballots because Republicans were allowed to add voter identification numbers to ballot applications.

A hearing was scheduled. Bush received 6,294 absentee votes in the county, compared with 3,479 for Gore, or a difference of 2,815 votes.

A similar incident in Seminole County also resulted in a Democratic lawsuit, which contends election officials
violated a state law that says only the voter,an immediate family member or a guardian can fill out an absentee
ballot application. That suit seeks to throw out all 15,000 absentee ballots cast in the county.

A trial is scheduled for next week."
