63. Other than state vs. fed. office what is different from FL. 2000?

I honestly don't know why WA got to recount their votes by hand in 2004 and Florida didn't in 2000. Did Washington have a whole state recount provision (as opposed to Florida's only count certain counties that hamstrung Gore). Did Washington have better standards (more specific than intent of the voter) that allowed SCOTUS to make an equal protection (of the voter) ruling?
