ABC news in NY has just reported that Gore's lead in New Mexico is down to 130 votes!!!

Apparently there is an irregularity in one precincts voting machines!

Sorry, this came over the radio, I do not have a link.

I am no expert but I DO have an opinion.
 
This has resulted from a recount of ballots from Bernalillo County (Albuquerque), because a software glitch discounted at least some straight-ticket ballots. The state Gore-Bush margin is now 130 votes, with 252 votes outstanding and being searched for. I don't know if they are physically lost or lost in the system someplace. It seems likely the counting here will go on for a while.

Elections workers were looking for the missing ballots in the county warehouse
where the votes were tallied. Meanwhile, the state GOP considered legal action.
