None of these votes are counted in any state in the union. And how do you decide that an overvote is for Algore? Maybe it was for the other candidate? This is such a pack of lies.

More from Matt:
Bush would have narrowly prevailed in the partial recounts sought by Gore, but Gore could have "reversed the outcome -- by the barest of margins -- had he pursued and gained a complete statewide recount," according to one interpretation of the database complied by the media consortium.

I'm bettinng it was based on the old Suzanne Gunsgurger method of divination: " this voter voted the democratic ticket so he must have voted for Gore." Both parties have been trying for aeons to get people to vote the party line and rarely have they succeeded. So this logic is wishful at best

Now of course, there are also instances when the voter selects the candidate by punching a chad and then writes in the candidate's name. That too, is considered an overvote. Seems to me this kind of overvoting is a great way to be mischievous.
