Really? I am referring to the night of the election and the next day. I watched the whole fiasco into the early hours and next day. The goal for the Dems was to find 500 plus votes for Gore in said county and then call it done. First attempt reduced Bush's lead from 2000 to 500. They were selective of course. They spent hours trying to decide if hanging chads counted and running the ballots through the machines again. The goal was to call a win for Gore.
It is possible that recounts continued in other counties. That may be automatic trigger if it was close in the other countries too but it doesn't stand out.
