print.data.frame : row.name = FALSE not having intended effect

Hi,

Does anybody know if row.name = FALSE actually works in v2.6.2?
Because it isn't working for me... here is some sample code and
output:

====+====+====+====+====+====+====+====+====+====+

print(x,row.names = FALSE)

party_abbr       candidate_name votes_candidate
2         DFL        AMY KLOBUCHAR       1,278,849
5           R         MARK KENNEDY         835,653
4          IP    ROBERT FITZGERALD          71,194

Thanks,
