Earley joins filing for Bush


 Nov 29, 2000


Virginia Attorney General Mark L. Earley joined attorneys general from two
other states yesterday in filing a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in
support of Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush.

The Bush campaign has asked the high court to reverse a decision by the
Florida Supreme Court that allows a manual recount of ballots in three
Florida counties. The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments in the
case on Friday before making a decision.

Bush has a slight lead in Florida over Democrat Al Gore in the popular vote,
but Gore sought the recounts in an effort to overturn the Florida vote. He
claims that not all the votes have been counted. Whoever wins Florida's 25
electoral votes will win the presidency.

The friend of the court brief filed by Virginia, South Carolina and Nebraska
argues that if Gore electors are seated from Florida, their votes will
"effectively disenfranchise the states whose votes they wrongfully offset."

It also argues that allowing the Florida Supreme Court's decision to allow
the recounts to go unchecked would invite "similar - perhaps competing -
misconduct in future elections" and perhaps undermine confidence in the
outcome of the election.

The brief states that the Florida court's decision had the effect of
"abandoning the rules in the middle of an election recount." - Tyler Whitley
