<<No psychic powers necessary. About 99% of the votes were for either Gore or Bush. Obviously about 99% of the ballots were cast for one of those two candidates.>>

Nationally that was true but for Palm Beach County it wasn't. You think it out. Perhaps if someone could find a poll for Palm Beach County right before the election.

All this talk about voter intent in the absence of voter accuracy makes me want to barf.

If the voters wanted to vote for Gore then all they had to do was follow instructions. If they were confused then, once again, they had instructions to follow to get help.

The spoiled ballots were probably cast by people who had a 99% chance of being too stupid to have made an informed decision anyway.

I say let's make voting even more difficult.
