Both sides vindicated

Just stumbled across this fascinating article about the 2000 elections, and
it has some very relevant info about this election. Before the flames begin,
it vindicates the Pirate and his defense of the original Florida ballot, and
it vindicates my frustration on the urban vs. rural vote of this (and last)
election. All in all, it has some interesting perspectives, supported by
some managable mathematics and logic.

Worth a look. From both sides.

Interesting reading. I knew there had been at least another tie in my
lifetime, but couldn/t remember who.

The county map is very revealing. Never saw that before.

Let's hope this is the last friggin' post we have about the 2000 election.

Actually, in 1824 John Q. Adams lost both the popular vote (108,740 to
153,544) AND the electoral vote (84-99), AND did not even receive the
majority of electoral votes, but was awarded the presidency anyway by the
House!! Glad we weren't around in THOSE days...
