51. FL: County Leaders: Many Missing Ballots Found
The search for Palm Beach County's missing ballots has hit pay dirt. Top County brass announced Thursday afternoon they have identified ballots that were not fed through tabulation machine in a recount of a close race for judge.

Assistant County Administrator Brad Merriman and County Commissioner Mary McCarty released the new information at a news conference at the county's vote tabulation center. Neither Merriman nor McCarty would say how the missing ballots were found or how many there are.

"We haven't determined exactly which ballots" did not go through the recount, said Merriman. "But we do know those ballots do exist." Merriman said he believes the number could be significant.

Merriman and McCarty said they would provide more information on Friday, at the conclusion of an exhaustive ballot accounting process now being conducted by county staff.
