dale - November 19 16:55EST BROWARD COUNTY, Broward County officials have made the decision to go ahead and count unused ballots. Broward County has 8,455 ballots which were left unused on election day. This batch of unused ballots has produced a net gain of 133 votes for Gore. Officials noted that in order to determine the true intent of the ballot it was necessary to add the condition of a "blushed" chad, to the dimpled and pregnant chad categories. Blushed chad show a slight discoloration which cleary indicates the the intent of the chad. UPDATE: Broward County officials have sent their recount workers home for an overnight rest while waiting for their order of 10,000 virgin ballots with artificially inseminated chads to arrive via USPS delivery in the morning. Current expectations call for the chads to become countably pregnant within 4 to 5 chad-months, equivalent to about two human hours.
