Ben, There is certainly a heavy slant being given to Gore. I checked the Sun Sentinel site to verify this story and i believe it is accurate... Posted Thursday, Nov. 16, 2000 11:15 p.m. EST Palm Beach Denied Hand Recount for Republican Can candidates have a manual recount in a close election in Palm Beach County? Only if you're a Democrat, apparently. In a September Republican primary for the Florida House, Beverly Green of West Palm Beach was judged the loser by 14 votes, the Fort Lauderdale Sun Sentinel reported Sept. 8. When she requested a manual recount, the three-person county canvassing board unanimously decided to use a computer. "It wasn't that close. The manual count is historically when it's single digits," said Supervisor of Elections Theresa LePore, who joined County Commissioner Carol Roberts and County Judge James Burton on the board, the Sun Sentinel reported. These three, of course, are familiar to anyone following the presidential vote recount in Democrat-dominated Palm Beach County. Green, interviewed today on Fox News Channel, said she was told the board could authorize a hand recount only if there were evidence of voter fraud or equipment malfunction. But that doesn't seem to be the case now in Palm Beach County, does it? The automatic recount, by the way, gained Green one vote, the Sun Sentinel said.
