News in Brief
Absentee ballots
thrown out in Fla.
www.4.Oandgo.com, orcali 696-8886(TUTOR)
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — A
Republican governor said Saturday
that George W. Bush’s margin
among voters who sent ballots
from overseas should have been
larger than reported, saying the
GOP is considering a lawsuit be
cause large numbers of absentee
ballots were thrown out.
While gaining 1,380 votes to Al
Gore’s 750 from the overseas ab
sentees, the Bush campaign com
plained about large numbers of bal
lots that were thrown out, often for
a lack of an overseas postmark.
Montana Gov. Marc Racicot,
appearing at a news conference
that Republicans held in Austin,
told reporters that “the vice pres
ident’s lawyers have gone to war
in my judgment against the men
and women who serve in our
Armed Forces."
Racicot said Bush’s lawyers
could still file a legal challenge to
the rejected military ballots. “We are
presently in the process of examin
ing our remedies," he said. “ ... We
haven’t made our final judgment.”
