Well here is some funny dedusionary.....
Over 3,500 Voted Twice in 2000 Pres. Election

The 2000 presidential election wasn't as close as everyone thought ... at least according to a new study that says as many as 316,000 people nationwide are registered to vote in two different places, and 14,486 New Yorkers were also registered to vote in Florida in 2000.

The Republican National Committee, while updating its database of over 165 million voters for changes of address (a process which is estimated to identify around 65 percent of double voters), found that as many as 1 percent of those who were double-registered voted twice - 709 of them in Florida.

In New York, according to an investigation by the New York Post, of its 415 double voters, over 400 were from Manhattan, where almost 70 percent of voters are registered Democrat.

So, according to the numbers:
* if there were actually 30 percent more (100,000) people double
registered,
* and there were over 200 more people who double voted in Florida, * and if 70 percent of the probable 930 who double voted in Florida
were Democrat,

... well, legally, it wouldn't seem that Al Gore was close after all, would it?
