General Discussion

Having spent 15 years volunteering on election campaigns and living in one of the disputed counties when I lived in Florida, I can tell you that the pro Bush media consortium that claimed to count the votes in 2001 lied about the results in order to hide the truth that Al Gore got the most votes in Florida and is the rightful winner of the 2000 election. The pro Bush media conducted their vote count by inventing vote counting scenarios that did not exist in Florida election law in 2000 which allowed them to still not count all of the uncounted votes as Florida election law clearly required and that made it possible for them to invent another false Bush "win". The 2001 vote count that was done by non media volunteers and actually counted all of the uncounted votes as Florida law required found that Al Gore had won Florida by 4,500 votes. It's important to remember that most of the uncounted Florida votes are located in the largest and most heavily democratic voting counties in Florida. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know who these voters voted for. To this day, the pro Bush media refuses to report this important story. I think it's important that we continue to challenge the pro Bush media's invented Bush "win" and not continue to spread their misinformation.
