TRUE Election Chatter-

My brother said he saw a map of the US showing how each county voted in the presidential election. It was color coded. He said you really had to look to find a Gore county- they were in the overwhelming minority and their land area was much smaller than the Bush counties. But of course, they were the urban counties containing most of the population.

OTOH, my brother lives in Texas, so maybe this is just a tall tale.

P.S. I'm beginning to understand the wisdom of the founding fathers of the US of A who created this thing called the "electoral college". Still, I'd be willing to do away with the electoral college if we would implement a literacy test that required some knowledge of the principles of federalism upon which this country was founded.
