This is another neat argusation by the forum. I think I'll join in..
Don't forget that no matter how many disputed figures can be presented
about the great election blunder of 2000, Bush still won hands down....
because he received the most electoral votes. Popular vote does not
matter, it just advises the electoral college on which way they should
vote. Very much like a republican (political system, not the party)
government, the electoral college should, but doesn't have to listen to
the people.
I'm off to my garage to turn some bolts- come get me after November.
Eric

yep, that is the guy that should be in my dreams, only that despite
my effort, I couldn't dream about him, LOL
I didn't have all of those details, but you proved my point: who can
be sure Bush won? Thanks
