I've never been sold on the claim that Al Gore won the popular vote in 2000. The election was a statistical dead-heat, well within the "margin of error" in ballot-counting for a national election. And what with all the fraud and cheating the Democrats do, I suspect Bush actually won the popular vote.
There were almost 1.5 million California absentee ballots that were never counted as it wouldn't have changed the state going for Gore but they were trending over 2 to 1 for Bush ... and the south florida cheating by the dems is legendary ,,, the "league of women voters" was caught in 1990 by the Miami Herald pre-punching ballots for a straight dem ticket ... the effect of this is that if you vote dem your vote is counted , if you vote repub your vote is discarded as there will be a punch for both... they were using a punch in a drill press frame to "vote" ,, this is why in 2000 there were "hanging chads" and off center punches etc. etc. ,, Janet Reno had the journalists arrested because they took some of the ballots from the warehouse as evidence... this is what got her noticed by the Clintons... it seems they thought that her dishonesty made her one of them...
