Carolyn, I tried a number of times to strike up a discussion on this particular article. I read it carefully at least three times and couldn't poke any holes in it. Any time I brought it up I just got called a conspiracy nut and was never challenged on the details raised by the author. I have been saying for weeks that I would love to see a statistical breakdown of those overvotes. Who did these voters choose in the Senate race? Who did they pick for the House? What party did they pick in local races? Since Palm Beach went 2-1 for Gore, you would "expect" that 2 out of 3 of the votes in the other races went to Democrats. I'll bet that isn't the case. The article does rough statistical work from ALL of Palm Beach ballots since the author doesn't have the breakdown from just the overvotes. It seems that Palm Beach voted proportionately more for the Republicans in these other races than any other Florida county. This leads to the conclusion that Bush was the loser in these overvotes. The only way this could have occurred is fraud - pure and simple.
