At the time, it was widely reported that the votes in Miami-Dade recount were starting to break towards Bush. I don't know if you saw the testimony before Judge Sauls of the Republican lawyer who was watching the Miami-Dade recount - he is a lifelong resident of Miami, and has been involved in elections for many years. He said that in Miami-Dade, the recounts started with Precinct 1, and were continuing in numerical order towards, I believe, Precinct 627. The low numbered precincts are to the North and East and are mostly black, and voted 90-10 for Gore. Then as the numbers go South, they become more Hispanic, then as they swing West, become more white, and the North West ones are almost all white. So the further along the manual recount went, the fewer votes for Gore and the more for Bush.
