2.) Gore's party demanded a call for undervotes found in the voting ballods.
3.) Undervote: A vote where there was no detected vote for a president, probably caused by poor marking or misalligning of the ballod.
4.) After regular court and appeal court the Court's decision was unanimous on not continuing the recount and awarding the presidency to Bush.
