Never happen! But Gore would win. Nader out! If Only! If Only! If Only! :-( This dude has been so exciting........good times to be living in, to be able to see democracy and history in action. Unbelievable! Bush got 1/2 of the elder vote in Fla. and the hispanic Gore got blacks and women.

Paul, you are right on... Europe has runoff elections all the time Anderson in 1968 Perot in 1992 Nader in 2000 Nixon would have won anyway Perot votes apparently would have been split between Bush and Clinton but Nader seems to have taken votes from Gore a handful of states had margin less than Nader's count BUT WOULD MOST OF NADER'S VOTERS SIMPLY NOT VOTED ??? / Jim

Miami controversy with ballots sounds like NO corruption left side of ballot had Bush then Gore listed right side of ballot had Buchanan then others listed the slots for punching out or marking alternated left then right then left then right etc some people might have checked off Buchanan from the right side column when intending to check off Gore in the second position from the left column Buchanan name appeared second in line if you look vertically human error is not correctable on ballots, if the error is made by the voter if transcription of a vote to an automated counter is in error, then it must be corrected we will NOT have voters given a second chance to correct their wrongly entered votes... that would open the door for simply changing their minds... a vote is a vote, even if not what you wanted to vote... weird science Buchanan had a disproportionate number of votes where that confusing ballot was used should they use statistical analysis to refute certain ballots? I DOUBT IT FLorida recount to be concluded by end of day jeez loueez / jim
