No matter how successful George W. Bush proves to be as president, a pall will forever hang over the 2000 election. In national scrutiny of the way Americans cast and count their ballots, many states were found wanting. The chief among them was Florida, where the outcome, with the help of the U.S. Supreme Court, gave Bush his victory over Al Gore.
Reform efforts are under way, but at least one major flaw in the system should be repaired by Congress before another national election is held. A chilling two-page account in the current issue of Harper's magazine by Greg Palast, who investigated the 2000 election for the BBC, illustrates why.
Had thousands of voters not wrongly been turned away from the polls, the outcome in Florida probably would have been different and Gore, not Bush, would be in the White House. Most of the disenfranchised voters were black.

Funny they don't mention Rat voter fraud. Enough of it and Al Gore would have been President. Of course the Concord Monitor would never have run an article saying Gore stole the election. We all know liberals are above such things and pure driven as the snow.

Most of the disenfranchised voters were black. This is an outright lie. Bald-faced and unmitigated. Good thing I don't have a subscription.

Hmmmmmmmm....ahhhhh, Concord Monitor, Gore lost FIVE recounts, the Supreme Court PREVENTED the FCS from breaking their State's own elections laws, Gore lost the Electoral College, you have failed to address the Florida's illegal discounting, disregarding, failing, forgetting, omitting, overlooking, overpassing, slighting many of the military absentee ballots.
To: soycd
He's right. The same thing happened in Florida as happened in Zimbabwe. In Zimbabwe, thousands of black Zimbabwean voters were prevented from voting, throwing the election to Mugabe. In Florida, thousands of black Haitian and Jamaican voters were prevented from voting, not allowing Gore to steal the election.
I hope someone will do a good analysis of the Florida Supreme Court theft attempt in this election before the facts get too stale.

And a Federal Circuit Court judge ruled that many of those absentee ballots had been illegally disqualified (by Dims), and must be counted.

No blacks who were registered were turned away. This "blacks were turned away" is just a stupid lie that no one outside a circle of a dozen race hustlers even listens to. Look for the B.S. to get thicker when election time rolls around in November.
