RE:"I think one of the newspapers said Gore had 90% of the Black voters. Can you confirm? What did CNN say? "

In FL it was 93% for Gore.

Amy-- Re: I seem to recall that some prior Republican candidates had gained a lot more Black voters' votes than what GW Bush is reported to have gained.

Actually, Bush did fine among black voters. Black voting tends to be only matched by Jewish voting in terms of consistency. The Black vote falls between 90%-95% Democratic in a majority of recent elections, so Bush did reasonably with ~10%.
