BUSH IS SHAKIN' IN HIS BOOTS RE: SEMINOLE CO. FRAUD

TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Dec. 1 — Compared with the challenge filed by Vice President Al Gore, or the case before the United States Supreme Court, the cases filed here in Leon County Circuit Court seeking to throw out absentee ballots from several Florida counties may seem like small blips on the radar screen of Florida elections lawsuits.

But Republican lawyers are treating them very seriously indeed, defending against them as if they were stealth bombers on the legal horizon. The suits question thousands, not hundreds, of votes. And should they prove successful, they could potentially cost Gov. George W. Bush enough votes to give Mr. Gore a margin of victory.
