Do you think the 45 is a misprint, and should have read 65? Otherwise it's old news. Plus, if we've learned anything from this, "It ain't ovah, 'till it's ovah." Consider the best case outcome for tonight: either Bush wins by 1000-2000 votes, as now appears likely, or the last few counties tip the balance and Gore wins with a few 100s of votes. Gore (or Bush) pulls in his legal beagles and concedes to the other man, but this concession has no legal effect. The Florida election will not be certified until November 17th, to allow time for counting the absentees. It's anyone's guess as to how those votes might tip the balance. Like, gag me with a spoon!

johnd, there is going to be a re-vote. No judge is going to go down in history as inciting riots and bloodshed. If these duped voters in Palm Beach County do not get one they will organize a million(s)people march on Washington, DC unlike anything we have ever seen. As an American, the best thing about Democracy is its flexibility and agility to argue and make changes. In this instance, we might get rid of the electoral system, standardize on a ballot and other that I am not prepared to mention. I am glad to say that I am an American because we have the right to speak up when we see an injustice and make the neccessary corrections. God Bless America, Bob.
