Florida decision may not come for days

BY MARK SILVA
msilva@herald.com

The presidential vote that was too close to count, Florida's unknown outcome
holding an entire nation at bay, may not be final for several days.

The vote was so close as the day after Election Day dawned, that Florida's
secretary of state cautioned she may not be able to immediately declare a
winner.

''I don't think the election is lost,'' added Florida Attorney General Bob
Butterworth, chairman of Gore's campaign in Florida, staging a pre-dawn news
conference at his Hollywood home. ''All the votes haven't been counted.''

The problem: An unknown number of absentee ballots that will be returned from
members of the military overseas. They have 10 days to return their votes,
postmarked by Nov. 7.

Who had more votes than Clinton?

You think it's nonsense because Bush was prematurely declared the winner last night. Bush is not the winner now and he does not have Fl in his win column. Gore is ahead in the EC tally and has won the popular vote. Bush has sealed his sad position in the footnotes of history now.
