Isn't it odd how so many say, Gore won, when he won so many less counties, and Bush won over 30 states!

OH MY GOD!  HE WON MORE COUNTIES AND STATES!!!!!!!!!!

Ugh.  Seriously.  If you looked at it that way, he should have won every single state in the US (about).  But guess what!  Some people in those counties actually voted for the other guy!  Weird, huh?  Roll Eyes

Also, note that 'Democratic' counties usually have more voters than 'Republican' counties.

Another thing:

In terms of 2000's EV (how we run presidential elections!  Shocked), Wyoming+Montana+North Dakota+South Dakota+Alaska+Idaho+Nevada+New Hampshire+Utah+Nebraska+West Virginia+Kansas+Arkansas=California.

So, unless you resort to some crude 'every county gets one vote' system, your argument is false.

yes, seriously.

 Face it, this argument is about as illogical as you can get.


No it isn't. Just you watch. We can get a lot more illogical!

Llamas and monkeys from the moon disturbed the brainwaves of psychic people in Spain, who accidentally caused ballot makers in Florida to make a flawed ballot, which, if used right, EVERYONE would know would vote Gore.

So HA!  Wink Smiley

I have to say on this issue that number of states and counties don't matter unless these states and counties have a lot of people in them.

Gore did win the popular vote, despite some corruption in voting.

Could this be a realistic Republican? Shocked

Good PBrunsel *pat pat*
