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.

No doubt about it! The Western part of Florida (panhandle) is HEAVY military voters. As DUMB as it is, many voters left lines to go home (or just didn't stop by their polling place) since "Gore won" and their vote "wouldn't matter" anyway. I would NEVER do that. . .

I'm sure plenty!
I remember watching and seeing the totals and Bush was ahead and they called it for Gore- I turned to my wife in total disgust, it was very confusing to say the least.
