		Glenda Hood is too practiced in politics and too polished in public relations to criticize the woman who ran Florida's elections before her.
		Hood defends her actions, saying much of the criticism aimed at her is residual partisan anger from the 2000 election, which she did not oversee.
		Hood also notes that the only time she talked to Harris about the job of secretary of state was when she was appointed to fill the job after Harris resigned to run for Congress.

		Hood, a former high school cheerleader and well-liked mayor of Orlando, dismissed concerns that a list of suspected felons might be flawed, and she tried to keep the list from being distributed.
		Hood include her recent decision to reject newly registered voters who did not check a box on the form indicating they were American citizens, even though they certified on another part of the form that they were, and her issuance of a rule banning manual recounts on electronic voting machines.
		Hood said she met Jeb Bush when he was the state commerce department secretary and she was president of the Florida League of Cities in the 1980's.

	VotersUnite!
		Hood's critics say her retreat after steadfastly defending the "potential felons" voter list is only one of many warning signs that Florida may not be ready, after all.
		At the epicenter is Hood, the former Oak Ridge High School cheerleader who ran city government from 1992 to 2002 with a tireless intensity, an unflagging smile and a penchant for keeping her chin up in the face of failed initiatives.
		Hood agrees that a cloud still hovers over Florida's voting system, and to quell talk of another election debacle, she has focused her office on reaching out to voters.

		Hood claims it was a downturn in tourism and an increase in over-time pay for police and fire personnel after Sept. 11.
		Another perfect example of Hood's habit of poor planning is that she allowed the city to rely on the generosity of the Orlando Utilities Commission to balance the city books for years.

		Hood, a former Orlando, Fla., mayor, has said she was only trying to perform "ministerial" duties as the state's top elections officer, and help supervisors meet a deadline.

		The difference between Hood and Harris, however, is that no one gave Harris much thought until George W. Bush clung to a thin lead in the 2000 election.
		Hood said Jim Stork, who stopped campaigning due to a heart condition, missed a deadline to withdraw.

		In the two-page letter faxed to Hood today, Marshall wrote: Â“We believe that this interpretation of Florida law is incorrect and that any person signing the oath on line 17 should not have the application rejected solely because of failure to check Â“yesÂ” on line 2.
