US Presidential candidate Al Gore retracted his concession of defeat, as his camp doubts the results of the elections, reported BBC TV Channel.
Florida's secretary of state said early Wednesday that the presidential race may not be over because the vote count between George W. Bush and Al Gore is too close, US television said, reported AFP.
The agency said that CBS and CNN reported that the official, Katherine Harris, said the difference in votes between Bush and Gore was less than 700 votes and that an automatic recount might be required.
Networks earlier projected a slim victory in the state for Bush, giving him Florida's crucial 25 electoral votes and putting him one over the 270 needed to win the White House, according to the agency.
Gore, who had been preparing to deliver a concession speech at his campaign headquarters in Nashville, was delaying his appearance before a waiting crowd pending more details from Florida, the networks said – (Several Sources)
