It must be treated differently because it benefits your cause? Is that what you are trying to say?

Here we go...........Other states mull vote recounts - - - - - - - - - - - - Nov. 9, 2000 \| In addition to Florida, four other states may see their presidential votes end with recounts. In New Mexico, a recount was already underway involving some 67,000 absentee and early-voting ballots in Bernalillo County, the most populous county that includes Albuquerque. With 99 percent of the precincts reporting before the recount began, Democrat Al Gore had 255,597 votes, or 49 percent, and Republican George W, Bush had 245,526, or 47 percent. Nader won 19,215 votes, or 4 percent. In Oregon, a recount may also be required by a state law if the margin between Bush and Gore were less than one-fifth of 1 percent, or about 2,500 votes. With more votes to be counted in Republican leaning areas, Gore led Bush by about 4,000 votes. In Iowa, Republican officials are exploring the possibility of requesting a voter recount in a state that Bush lost by less than 5,000 votes. To ask for a recount, Bush would have to personally write each of Iowa's 99 county auditors by 5 p.m. Nov. 16 or 17, depending on the county. In Wisconsin, where Bush lost by about 6,000 votes, there is no automatic recount. But a candidate may request a recount. The Bush campaign said they are looking at that possibility.
