Cheating Allegations...The Truth about Bush 2000

[Monty]

Are you arguing against the Drudge Report?

A later and far more compresensive study, done by The NYTimes, CNN, Washoington Post and assorted others concluded that Bush did, indeed, win...

Sorry, but that is the truth...

Do you mean this study, Vorlon?

"The study's key result: When the consortium tried to simulate a recount of all uncounted ballots statewide using six different standards for what constituted a vote, under each scenario <b> they found enough new votes to have narrowly given the Florida election--and by extension the presidency--to Al Gore." </b>

Yes, but I still believe more Floridians voted for Gore than Bush.

This quote sums it up nice.

"Al Gore beat George Bush in Florida by almost every vote-counting standard save the one the Gore team managed to choose," the Court 'did not have to take the election away form Al Gore: He and his campaign gave it away themselves.'"

All I'm saying is that (ignoring the Buchanan-Palm Beach situation) more people went to the voting booth on November 7, 2000 to vote for Al Gore than for George W. Bush.

I meant in Florida.

Human beings have bias, it's just the way it is.

Machines may not have "bias", but they do have error rates.  It's not always the voter's fault if the machine fails to read their ballot.  Surely, your copier, printer, etc. has not always functioned properly, to put it mildly.

But your plan sounds pretty good.
