Bush could request Iowa vote recount
Bush may pursue a county by county recount in Iowa if Florida shifts its electoral votes. Iowa law requires written requests to all 99 county auditors by mid November with a possible bond up to 1000 dollars per county. Officials note most counties show Bush ahead and a statewide change remained unlikely.
