Re: the paper concluded that Bush still would likely have... That's not quite true (we get both the New York Times and the Chicago Tribune every day). The AP story based upon the NYT story was in the Tribune, and was a distortion of the New York Times article. There are several issues that were discussed in the article (which is several full newspaper pages long - thousands of words). Near the end of the article is a table showing that Gore won by 202 votes if even one of the categories of technically illegal votes (both for Bush and for Gore) are excluded. Over and over again, in the various categories reviewed, spoiled ballots for Bush were accepted, where spoiled ballots for Gore were rejected. A double standard was applied where a flawed ballot for Bush was accepted while a flawed ballot for Gore was rejected. The obviousness of the fraud committed (where the state board applied far more stringent standards to votes from democratic counties than from republican counties) is dramatic. For example, voters from Republican counties were permitted to vote both regular and absentee in a number of cases, while all such Democratic votes were rejected. Same voter, same signature, etc. OK'd for Bush counties and rejected for Gore counties. A formal, systematic, statewide program was put in place by Republican government workers and party officials to accomplish these results. It's really something - Bush lost and is President through fraud.
