I'm not 100% convinced half the citizens voted for him. Reread Cabel's post# 2,146:

>>>>>>I work with technology, and anyone that knows me could tell you that I love new stuff and new gadgets. But these voting machines make me ill. There is no audit trail, no paper record of your vote, and no visibility to the data or the source code of the voting machines. The machines are also notoriously unsecure. Basically all you do is push a button and hope for the best. Even the elections departments have no way to recount or validate the election. All of the power of the election is in the hands of a private company that is accountable to no one. It doesn't take a genius to realize how screwed up that is. I agree with you Ruth, these machines are the end of any semblance of a representative republic that we might have had left.<<<<<<

Now remember the response to Florida? Even if Gore had won Florida, he wouldn't have won; yet he was so sure he did, why?

There have also been quite a bit of articles coming out about, "computer security experts warned of "significant security flaws" with the system designed by Diebold Election Systems. "

I also have heard many rumors about absentee military votes not being counted.

So I am not convinced of the number of votes Gore, either Clintons, nor of the votes Kerry 'thinks' he might receive.

I still see a long bumpy ride ahead.
