"The fraud in Philadelphia was pervasive, and resulted in the Democrats producing more Gore votes than they had eligible voters.'

Cyberknut.....you are so full of crap your ears stink.... First of all there are 1,025,259 registered voters in Phila....of these 751,226 are Dems and 196, 699 Reps, ie 73.3% vs 19.2%. There were only 552,614 votes cast for President , i.e, 53.9% of those listed as eligible. Pretty poor turnout and in fact the worst turnout for Phila since at least 1964 when they had an 85.8% turnout, their all time record. Voter participation has been decreasing essentially monotonically since then and is of great concern to the city. In fact the nonpolitical League of Womens Voters had a large campaign in 2000 to get out the vote. Unlike you, I will provide a link for this info...it contains a wealth of voter info including links to a site of the Federal Elections Commission which explains why it is so difficult to purge voter registration lists of ineligible voters. The Stephen Bronar study you cite is in any number of links but all simpley quote the same thing, ie the assertion that more voters in Phila voted than were elligible to vote not the BS that you stated in your post referenced above.

Here are some links for your edification: (I hope Ish also reads them and stops relying on RW BS)
