   A review of a dozen candidates’ campaign folders showed only one
other politician who gave contributors’ money to his or her offspring:
Suzanne Gunzburger, another incumbent commissioner who ran unopposed
[in 1998], gave her son [Ron] $10,000 ($3000 of which he later
returned to the campaign) in consulting fees.

"Broward count and protests continues; Gore gains 437 votes"

   Inside, the three board members squinted one-by-one at the
punchcard ballots, looking for punctures and slivers of light to weigh
voter intent. Each follows a different standard, based on how
perforated a card is.
   "This is an attempt to vote for Al Gore," board member Suzanne
Gunzburger, a Democrat, said as she examined one ballot. "It is a very
clear attempt. And I believe there is light on the bottom when I hold
it this way."

   Republicans also wrote a letter protesting what they called the
"grossly inappropriate" way that canvassing board member Suzanne
Gunzburger, a Democrat, handled the ballots. They said she was
"bending them in order to try to create or enlarge slivers though
which light may pass so that she can argue that a ballot reflects a
vote for Gore."
   But Dole’s presence at the counting table didn’t appear to
intimidate Gunzburger, who continued to be the sole Gore advocate on
some of the contested ballots. "There seems to be light at the top and
bottom of Number Three. A vote for Gore," said Gunzburger, in what
typically started an exchange.

"Broward, Miami-Dade head in radically different directions on
recounts"

   GOP officials have complained throughout Broward’s recount that the
third board member, Democratic County Commissioner Suzanne Gunzburger,
is overtly biased against them. With at least two board members having
to approve each ballot for it to be counted for either candidate, Bush
spokesman Sullivan said Lee clearly was the swing vote.
   "We believe Judge Lee is a decent, fair-minded judge," Sullivan
said. "Mrs. Gunzburger is a hard partisan…."

   Early in the day, Democrat canvassing board member Suzanne
Gunzburger proposed changing the method of counting to include dimpled
or "pregnant" chads, those with an indentation but no perforation in
the ballot.
   It was estimated that the change could affect 1,000 ballots now
considered undervotes.
   Republicans vehemently objected, charging that the board is simply
trying to gain more votes for Gore in light of Bush’s larger advantage
from the overseas ballots.
   "You don’t change the rules midstream," complained County GOP
Chairman Ed Pozzuoli.

"Gore picks up more Broward votes, despite concerns of felons voting"

   Meanwhile, the board was considering a motion by Democrat Suzanne
Gunzburger to change its current standards of determining whether a
ballot is valid.
   Right now, they only count ballots if two or more corners of the
chad are detached. If one or no corners are detached, they don’t.
Gunzburger wants them to adopt a more subjective standard… which
would include one corner detached or pregnant chads.

   But perhaps the most noticeable skeptic of the process Wednesday
was Broward Supervisor of Elections Jane Carroll, who likened the
activity in the emergency operations center to a "Chinese fire drill."

   Carroll, a Republican who opposed the countywide hand recount, saw
far too few controls on who was attempting to read the ballots. And
she worried the ballots were becoming damaged, the more election
workers touched them.
   "I don’t even know who some of these people are," Carroll said of
the workers counting the ballots. "I’d like to see a much more
controlled environment."

   But Gunzburger, the most insistent proponent of a full manual
recount in Broward, said the hand recount was needed to ensure that
every vote is counted and to rectify errors uncovered in a sample hand
recount.
   "The machines did not properly count all the properly voted
ballots. It was tabulation errors by the machines, not voter error,"
Gunzburger said.
   In the sampling recount of three of the county’s more than 600
voting precincts, yielded a net gain of four votes for Gore and no
change for Bush.
