NAVY VOTES FOUND ON GULF SHIPS

WASHINGTON - The Navy said yesterday it has discovered bundles of
overseas ballots left behind on three ships in the Persian Gulf.
Cmdr. Greg Smith, a Navy spokesman, said the ballots cast by
some of the 3,000 sailors and Marines on board the USS Tarawa,
USS Deleuth and USS Anchorage would be flown back to the United
States "expeditiously" -
hopefully in time to be counted.
"All we're trying to do is see if there's a way to get the mail
there," said Smith.
The outcome of the neck-and-neck presidential race hangs on
counting every absentee vote, especially in pivotal Florida, but
Smith said it was unclear which states are involved.
Under Florida law, overseas ballots must be postmarked by
Election Day and must be in by Friday.
Smith said all shipboard mail was left to languish while the
three West Coast-based ships assisted the stricken USS Cole after
it was bombed by terrorists last month - until someone remembered
that the mail included deadline ballots.
The Navy will fly the ballots, which were postmarked at the time
each crew member turned in his mail onboard, only as far as the
mainland, and the Postal Service will handle it routinely from
there, Smith said.
Spokesmen for the Army, Marines and Air Force said they were
unaware of any other similar snafus.
