A prominent Florida law firm, Greenberg Traurig, said it had been retained by the Bush campaign ``in the event a challenge must be filed'' after Florida's votes were recounted. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) called on U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno to investigate reports that black voters were turned away at one Florida polling place because of an alleged ballot shortage, that some received inoperable ballot cards and that others were disqualified by election officials who claimed their race did not match official voting records. The NAACP said the allegations suggested ``a pattern of deliberate attempts to suppress the level of African American votes,'' which they assumed would be mainly Democratic votes. capitolhillblue.com
