No, in 2000 FL's electoral votes would have gone to Gore, the nationwide popular vote winner and Gore would be President today. That's why the Left is pushing this plan forward. They think a majority of Americans would vote for a Democrat. But what if a Republican gets a national majority? Their initial flush of enthusiasm then may turn into a move to dissolve the interstate compact.

I thought GWB won in Fla. by 532 votes.

That's why the Dem-lib-weenies kept asking for recount after recount, in hopes of muddling the situation so much they could "find" enough votes to overturn that thin margin.

Gore would not have gotten Fla.'s electoral college votes because he lost the popular vote in Florida.

Yes, but we're talking CALIFORNIA, not Florida.
