The secretary of state's office on Wednesday released a count of 155,337 provisional ballots. Unofficial vote totals from Tuesday's election put President Bush ahead by 136,000 votes, but Kerry made it clear in his concession speech that there were not enough outstanding votes for him to win the state and capture the presidency. Experts say provisional ballots do not depart significantly from the overall vote.
