Does any one take into account,the state was called to Gore before half of the state's polls were closed.I had to encourage my daughters to go ahead and vote here in California.Even though we live in a stinking liberal cesspool,Were all proud to have voted for a President who is worthy of the nations respect, not to mention the military....nuff said

The Constitution is a compact of the parties - the federal government, the people and the states. The Electoral College is intended to provide some measure of protection against the tyranny of the majority which the liberals have made the keystone of their existence. Of course, liberals have never been concerned about the consistency of their beliefs unless it means winning elections.

My question to the liberals is "if the Electoral College is non-democratic and should be abolished, should not any Constitutional Amendment doing so also abolish the US Senate?" After all Montana has two Senators and less than a million citizens whereas California at least ten times the number of citizens and only two Senators - can anything be less democratic?

"Does any one take into account,the state was called to Gore before half of the state's polls were closed."

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 AND across the USA due to Drudge, Fox etc.

Not only was florida called on behalf of Goron -it CONTINUED to be in Gore's column when the percentages were 57%Bush... it looked really silly on TV. And instead of switching it to BUSH they switched it back to UNDECIDED.

So, apparently any state with 51% for GORE was decided but any state with over 50% for bush was still 'too close to call'
