Bush camp tries to halt Florida recounts (blast past)

The Bush request follows a Florida Supreme Court decision that revived Vice President Al Gore's presidential hopes by ordering a manual recount of at least 43,432 "undervotes" from as many as 62 counties.

Why would any American or Americans want to stop the People from hand counting the ballots?
