Florida recount request denied in bungled primary
Janet Reno asked for a statewide recount of Florida's botched primary but the state elections board rejected the move. Secretary of State Jim Smith said no recounts would be held, though counties could submit updated totals next week for final certification, while Reno pressed for a clear victory amid disputed precinct results and potential court action. The unofficial count showed McBride ahead by 8,196 votes, with concerns over Miami-Dade and Broward precincts and reports of turnout anomalies and machine errors during the vote.
