That's exactly right, and as the link you cited reminds us, fraud comes in many forms.

Recall that in 2000, Dan Rather and CBS called Florida for Gore well before the polls had closed in the Florida panhandle, which is strongly conservative and strongly Republican. Imagine how many people in Pensacola and Panama City were on their way to vote, heard Rather say that, and thought, "Damn. Well, there's no use in voting now." If Rather had not of said that, Bush likely would have won Florida without the Supreme Court becoming involved.

Dan Rather's hatred of the Bush family from GHW to GW is well known. It's fortunate that his bias against them eventually cost him his job and reputation.
