Judge Allows Bungled Ballots

The "dimpled" or "pregnant" chads – those not punched through – are likely to add to Al Gore's vote total in this heavily Democrat county.

The Palm Beach Canvassing Board has delayed a full manual recount until the Florida Supreme Court takes up the question of partially punched ballots.

Gore adviser Warren Christopher, a former U.S. secretary of state, said he planned to petition to the state's highest court to answer that "critical question" and others.
