Oh, I hope that's not true. We need closure here, desperately. 90,000 votes to be recounted? How long will that take? I may sell some stock Monday.

<font color=red>Election result could swing on hand tally today</font> Election result could swing on hand tally today WEST PALM BEACH -- Forget the 19,000 double votes for president. Put aside the smattering of ballots for Pat Buchanan in Jewish districts. The real focus of today's manual recount is a block of 10,361 phantom Palm Beach County ballots that named no president in Tuesday's election. If the Democrats can somehow turn a handful of those non-votes into Al Gore votes, Florida's 25 Electoral College votes go to him. And then Gore goes to the White House with more than the required 270 electoral votes. "There's no way all those people didn't vote for president," said Monte Friedkin, head of Palm Beach County's Democratic Party. "No offense, but do you really think that people wanted to vote for the clerk of courts but not the leader of our country?" gopbi.com
