CAROL LIN, CNN ANCHOR: Let's get some expertise now. Our CNN elections analyst Ken Gross standing by in Washington. Ken, you heard the Miami-Dade Canvassing Board's decision to count these undervotes. Does it sound like a fair procedure now as they try to examine them for dimples?</s>KEN GROSS, FORMER FEC OFFICIAL: Well, this is, I think, the only thing they can do at this point in order to fulfill the order of the court. Miami is the biggest county, and I guess they made an assessment based on just sheer manpower and ability that there was way no way in which they could recount all the votes. So the 10,000 votes that were not counted, the so-called undercounted votes, are the ones that are probably the ones most subject to machine error, ones that may have gotten pulled through, that for whatever reason didn't get counted, or the chad wasn't pierced properly. So, you know, in view of the supreme court's opinion, it looks like it's probably a proper action.</s>LIN: With no apparent vote for president on the ballot.</s>LEON HARRIS, CNN ANCHOR: Right. In a sense, I guess to a layman it almost does kind of make sense. But let me ask you about that. Which camp do you think is likely going to protest the loudest about this?</s>GROSS: I think the Republicans are going to protest this because these votes are potentially a rich mine for Gore. This is a county that went for Gore, so it stands to reason that if votes were not counted because of a partial attempt to vote on that ballot, that they would favor Gore. And since, you know, this is 10,000 ballots or more, I would think the Republicans would not be happy with this decision.</s>LIN: All right.</s>HARRIS: And hopefully we'll get some reaction from them later on this morning. Thanks much, Ken Gross. We'll talk to you later on.</s>LIN: Thanks so much, Ken.
