Technically Drudge was correct, he just used a misleading headline. The article mentions a 40-ish victory for Gore in one scenario and >200 lead for Gore in another scenario.
Drudge was just generating traffic and controversy... in other words, doing his job...

If you recall BEFORE election night Drudge bragged how he would release VNS Poll data BEFORE the networks did.
Sure enough, before the 2nd time zone in FL closed he "announced" Gore won.
Then Fox, according to O'Reilly, was the 1st network to "announce" Gore won before the FL polls had closed.
On election night I was at a friends house while she was on the State of FL election return site,
it showed Bush ahead while Fox and everyone else said Gore won.
I wonder how many Bush votes were lost by the 2nd time zone due to Drudge, Fox etc.
