I think you misunderstand the question.  I looked it up for you - it's three (Greenup, Lyon and Rowan).

Also Fayette for certain, and probably also Letcher (unless Gore actually carried it anyway).

Incorrect.  Check the results.  Bush won Kentucky by a very comfortable margin, not much would have changed.

In Fayette for example:

Gore   44.8%   47,277   
 
Bush   51.7%   54,495   
 
Nader   2.9%   3,052

No...

Bush got 52.88% in Fayette and 52.96% in Letcher.

You're looking at the 2004 results there, but Bush still got over 50% in Fayette in 2000 too.

Nader was only on the ballot as a write-in...

Uh... I don't believe that you are on the ballot if you are a write-in. Cool

There was clearly a spot on the Georgia ballot that said "Write in Nader please:"
