LOL, the Gore attorneys challenged every ballot they could. They had a list of voters and could reasonably determine how the person might vote and they were trained to steal that vote with protests and challenges. Gore has treated these people like dirt and stolen from them. He can never be their Commander-in-Chief. Remember the Gore motto, every vote of the RIGHT people must be counted. Of course, people who might vote for his opponent should not be counted. And, people who elected not to vote at all should be counted for Gore, according to Ghore.

Interesting, New Mexico is doing a recount on ballots because republicans saw a significant undervote in one district. I thought that was the whole point of re-counting Palm Beach ...

cnn.com

New Mexico elections officials Tuesday issued a
conditional certification of Gore as winner in that state's
presidential contest, pending a final review of disputed
ballots in one county.

The state canvassing board said Gore's 483-vote margin
would not be certified until Thursday after a judge in
Roosevelt County can review the status of 570 disputed
ballots that were not counted for either candidate.
Republicans said the 10 percent undervote in Roosevelt
County was "significantly higher" than in other New
Mexico counties and asked for another check.

The winner in New Mexico is awarded five electoral votes.
Candidates have until Dec. 6 to ask for a recount and until
Jan. 8 to contest the results. The Bush campaign has not
indicated it will not contest the election

the canvassing boards were given directives by FL attorney general (I think) as to how the military absentee ballots should be examined. The directive in question is being examined as to why it was issued.

I don't recall the senator's name who brought the issue up... it was on TV
