John,

Gore has won
the popular vote and, by all sensible measures, would certainly have
won Florida, if Palm Beach County had used the kind of ballots that are
clearly mandated by Florida law. It is an insult to one's intelligence to
argue that more than 3,000 elderly Jews intentionally voted for Pat
Buchanan, when every piece of anecdotal and statistical evidence
clearly indicates that they intended their votes to go for Al Gore.
(Desperation was apparent in Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer's pathetic
contention that Palm Beach County is a "Pat Buchanan stronghold".)
What's more, the extremely confusing ballots they were using were
a clear violation of the state's regulations. Florida law specifies that
ballots be constructed in such a fashion that voters mark an "X" in the
blank space to the right of the name of the candidate of their choice.
Well, Buchanan's name was placed to the left. How much clearer does
that need to be?
