Bruce Rogon, attorney for Palm Beach County Elections Supervisor Theresa LePore, shows a copy of a federal lawsuit by attorneys for Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush which challenges some Florida voting laws and asks that a manual count of ballots cease in West Palm Beach, Florida, November 11, 2000. Four days after a presidential election that failed to produce a clear winner, Bush clung to a slight lead in Florida where both candidates need the state's 25 electoral votes to claim victory.
