*Gore Web Site Solicits Activists to Complain About Vote More evidence the Gore-Lieberman campaign is not interested in a simple recount of the Florida vote: The home page of the campaign's Web site is soliciting voter complaints from Democratic activists in Florida and across the nation. The Gore Web site site leads with William Daley's statement of Nov. 11, 2000. Another headline reads: "November 7, 2000 Presidential Election Comments" asking activists to call in to discuss problems "about your vote in Florida or elsewhere." Activists are asked to either e-mail their complaints or call in to a special line, 800-579-8871. The line answers with a recording saying the caller has reached "the Florida voting hotline" and asks callers to leave name, voting precinct and phone number. A call-back is promised. (Already we hear that Bush activists on the Web are encouraging people to call the Gore toll-free line to complain about the politicization of the vote process by the Gore campaign.) Another page on the Gore Web site details how activists can help the Gore campaign. It reads: Thank you for contacting Gore/Lieberman 2000. Al Gore and Joe Lieberman appreciate your support. If you are willing to provide further information about your vote, please send an email to: flreport@web.democrats.org or call 800-579-8871 In your email, please include the follwoing information: Name of voter: Telephone Number of voter: State in which problem or irregularity occurred: County in which problem or irregulariy occurred: Address of voter: Age of voter: Voting Precinct name and number (if known): Polling Place location (county, city, street, building, floor, room) (if known): Time voter arrived at the polling place: 1. Did you intend to vote for Gore/Lieberman but think you voted for someone else?
