Gore Camp Considers Legal Options
MILES O'BRIEN, CNN ANCHOR: Now, Al Gore has no public events on his schedule this weekend. Nevertheless, we might have a few photo opportunities, perhaps a jog or two. CNN's Patti Davis is with the Gore camp near the Naval Observatory in Washington.</s>PATTI DAVIS, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Miles, the Gore campaign today will be pressing for all Florida votes to be counted. You'll note that they have been, that's been their case all along, every single vote in Florida should be counted. Senator, former Senator George Mitchell, a Gore surrogate, will be pressing that point today in Florida. He's expected to hold a press conference around noon Eastern Time. Now, the Gore camp is also considering going to Palm Beach court, suing there over the fact that they believe the Palm Beach County canvassing commission is not including all the dimpled ballots that it should and it could be costing Al Gore dearly some votes that he needs. Meanwhile, Gore lawyers are preparing to head to Leon County court on Monday to force Miami-Dade's hand recount to be included in the final vote tally. And then, of course, there's the U.S. Supreme Court argument next Friday. The question here is when will it all be over? Here's what Gore lawyer David Boies had to say about that.</s>DAVID BOIES, GORE ATTORNEY: If, for example, they gave Governor Bush everything Governor Bush is asking for, then that would be the end of the matter and I think that we have to accept, I think we're all prepared to accept, certainly Vice President Gore is prepared to accept what the U.S. Supreme Court rules.</s>DAVIS: Now, of course, the Gore campaign certainly hoping that that will not be the case. They will be arguing before the U.S. Supreme Court that this is a state issue. It is not something that the U.S. Supreme Court should be involved in. Now, here at the official residence in Washington, Al Gore, as you said, doesn't have a public schedule this weekend. He remains here. This is, in essence, his command and control. He is directing events and following them very closely, Miles.</s>O'BRIEN: All right, thank you very much, CNN's Patty Davis, who is with the Gore camp this weekend. We'll be checking in with her, of course, frequently.
