I thought the votes are sealed until they are counted by by Congress on January 5th. Hope you are right.

The media is trying to stir things up; they keep talking about Arizona electors who aren't bound; interviewing a faithless elector etc....And Miss Blankmind- editor of The Nation published an article a week ago "Wanted: Three Republican electors."

One Republican elector from Florida said she received 200 emails in one day, asking her to switch, before Gore's concession speech....

Sore and Loserman want to be able to claim not only did they get the popular vote but the electoral vote (hopefully not) as well. However being such a wonderful person, Gore will feebly claim to reject the votes of faithless electors. What a guy.

Congress would have to vote on that; and decide if those electoral votes from faithless electors would count. More chaos...but what difference does it make if you have already lost 4 times; what's one more time...

As far as Gore's claims to getting the popular vote and the media's constant attention to it: do his numbers exceed the margin of error nationwide? No.
And what about those 2 million votes not counted nationwide?
They only count in Palm Beach?

Bush is Time Man of the Year. I think. Someone from Time was interviewed tonight and said that.
