‘Episcopal
television Thursday watching the un
official recounts, and “I hope they’re
going to be a lot more accurate than
the other night.”
That was a reference to televi
sion networks that prematurely de
clared Gore the winner in Florida
and then reversed course and said
Bush had won the state — and with
it, the While House.
In addition to the partial recount-
by-hand in Palm Beach County, the
board in Broward County arranged a
meeting for Friday to discuss the
Gore campaign’s request for a man
ual recount there.
With the outcome of the presi
dential race in the balance, allega
tions on both sides were becoming
increasingly heated.
Gore campaign manager William
Daley said courts may find the Flori
da result “an injustice unparalleled in
our history.” Bush chairman Don
Evans countered, “The Democrats
who are politicizing and distorting
these events risk doing so at the ex
pense of our democracy.”
More than a thousand Gore sup
porters demonstrated outside a gov
ernment building in downtown
West Palm Beach, demanding an
other election in the county. They
said the confusing configuration of
their ballot had cost the vice presi
dent votes.
“Gore got more,” they chanted.
The Gore campaign contended
the ballots in Palm Beach County
were illegal. Reform Party candi
date Buchanan said “ineptitude” in
ballot design may have caused
many Democrats to vote for him in
advertently.
