DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR: And now let's go to Austin, Texas and that's where Tony Clark continues to brave the elements and cover the Bush camp. Tony, good -- well, good morning still for you. Good afternoon from us here in Atlanta.</s>TONY CLARK, CNN CORRESPONDENT: At least the weather's better. It's -- the weather is -- it's stopped raining a little bit, so that's good.</s>KAGAN: You were able to establish for us a little bit earlier today that George W. Bush went to the office for bit?</s>CLARK: He did. He's doing some office work. He's going to go exercise. An aide says -- I asked him how the governor is doing and he said, he's great. Calm and steady as she goes. Also said that both the governor and running mate Dick Cheney are very pleased with the result that they've heard so far out of Florida that the vote totals, when you add in the overseas ballots, have increased their lead and so he said they're very pleased with that in. And so they are eager for those votes to be certified and they would become the next administration. At the same time, though, Daryn, I was told by Dan Bartlett, one of the spokesman for the governor, that they're concerned about a couple of things in Florida. They're concerned about the way the manual vote count is going on. The hand counting, they say that there is clear and convincing evidence that is flawed -- a flawed process and that there aren't proper standards. And they're also concerned and I think they said they called it a distressing development that the Gore campaign is challenging some of those overseas ballots from the military in particular because of the postmark. They said that that is -- it flies in the face of what the Gore campaign has been saying that they want every vote to count. And they say they are trying to disqualify some votes on a technicality in and he called that a distressing development -- Daryn.</s>KAGAN: Tony Clark in Austin, Texas. Tony, thank you.
