I've seen a number of posts asking if anyone had seen evidence of a vote-count error in Kerry's favor, and noting that the absence of such errors was a powerful (if circumstantial) indication that systematic cheating had gone on by the Bush camp or its supporters. I was checking out a post made just a few minutes ago regarding the "VotersUnite!" site and did find such an example of an error in Kerry's favor, the first I've seen. For the record, then, and apologies if this has been posted before (who can tell with the flood of posts recently?):

"Sometimes the problem is that votes were miscounted. That's what happened, officials say, with precinct-by-precinct results posted on the Orange County elections office Web site showing that Democrat John Kerry beat Republican President Bush by 9,227 votes in Orange.
That was off by 8,400 votes. Officials working for Bill Cowles, the Orange elections supervisor, said the correct totals, available elsewhere on the site, showed that Kerry bested Bush in the county by only 827 votes.
The cause of the error, Orange officials said Thursday, was a software program that could not tabulate more than 32,767 votes in a single precinct. On election night, officials anticipated the problem and adjusted for it, deputy election official Lonn Fluke said Thursday.
But the next day, workers failed to account for the glitch while posting precinct results online. When absentee-ballot totals exceeded the limit in one precinct, the software caused additional votes to be subtracted from Bush's total."
