Gore won Florida.
I'm positive that the reporters recount showed that seven of the nine ways to count the votes put Gore ahead. That doesn't even count the 16,000 known to be lost through touch screen machines.

Can someone help me out with a link, I can't find one.

Thanks in advance.

3. This is important to read.

It's disturbing, though! There are a series of articles by this author about the 2000 election. Read all of them.

4. The media paid for recount showed that under all 8 methods Gore won
provided you followed the USSC and FSC rules to count every vote, over or under vote - that clearly showed intent.

The GOP and our media they played a game of what if they had not followed the USSC instructions and had just done undervotes (in some cases Bush wins) or had just done the 4 counties sued on day one rather than the whole state (again in some cases Bush wins).

What was funny was that the results were known by August - but held up until GOP advisors were able to suggest ways the write-up could be done so as to allow at least some Bush wins - so in the late fall the GOP whore known as the AP comes out with Bush would have won anyway based on undervotes in the 4 counties - and in Florida a paper ran a 3 day report where on the first day you were not told that under the USSC rules, under all methods, Gore won. Indeed they never had the guts to note that the previous paragraphs had in effect said that.

And all this without adjustment for the 20,000 illegal absentee votes, the illegal 500 absentee military votes, the 91000 of the 94000 nameed list of not allowed to vote which by the statement of the list maker should not have been allowed on the list if the law was followed, or the police road "check points", or the funny problem of optical machines in white areas having the "redo" switched on so a bad first read was noted and the sent through again, while in the black areas folks forgot to turn that on so black vote rejection with those same types of machines was 3 times the white area rate - and who can forget the only "recount" that actually occurred where 20,000 votes were taken off Gore via a second pass of a "memory" card that no one can find - and of couse the butterfly ballot where the second line - for Gore - meant punching the 3rd hole for Pat.

Yeah, Gore won - but do not expect our media to ever say anything.
