Judge Nixes GOP Suit Over Early Voters
By RACHEL LA CORTE, Associated Press Writer

MIAMI - A judge Monday dismissed an attempt by Republicans to force the elections supervisor in heavily Democratic Broward County to update a list of early voters, which elections officials said would be done regardless.

No court can micromanage an election and I have no intention of doing so," said Circuit Judge David Krathen.

Krathen, ruling in Fort Lauderdale, dismissed the Republicans' request after an attorney for county elections supervisor Brenda Snipes assured him that the list would be updated by 7 a.m. Tuesday.

Republican officials had said they were concerned that throngs of voters showing up Monday at early voting sites could vote again Election Day because the list sent to precincts contains only the names of people who voted early through Sunday
