Since the bump lists are not working, is there anyone who can link to the various vote fraud articles?

Had thousands of voters not wrongly been turned away from the polls, the outcome in Florida probably would have been different

I interpret this as: They are giving up on the "count every ballot" argument, because counting every legal ballot still shows GWB the winner.

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.

Had tens of thousands of voters in western Florida not been turned away from the polls because of premature network "calls" that Gore had won Florida, Bush's victory there wouldn't have been close.

Most of the disenfranchised voters were black.

And still to this day, Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton hasn't been able to put one in front of a camera...

[Utopia]

Good points. Also, If Gore had even won his own state, none of this would have happened.

You can still view the Vote Fraud list here.

If there was no Democrat voter fraud across the country, Bush would have won in a landslide without needing Florida

[Still Thinking]

If there was no Democrat voter fraud across the country, Bush would have won in a landslide without needing Florida

If they passed a law limiting voting to those who understood the Constitution, Bush might have had the first ever electoral college shutout!

Their thinking is pretty screwy. They want to divine the intent of the voter. Now, if the voter voted for Bush and also wrote in on the same ballot: "President Bush" that vote would be disqualified. (Obviously this voter is confusing Papa Bush with candidate Bush). If a voter voted for both Gore and Bush, that vote would be counted for Gore, because G comes after B, and they really meant to do G.

If Gore had even won his own state, none of this would have happened

AND, that of HIS president's home state of Arkansas.

Gore stated he needed to literally and figuratively mend some fences in his home state of Tennessee. The recent 'trial balloon' of Tipper running for the Senate and the resultant polls showing Tipper losing to Marilyn Quayle by 57% to 27%(AND dropping),shows that Gore would still lose Tennessee.

Let 'em keep whining straight through the election. Imagine Bush with solid majorities in both houses.

[eureka!]

"Most of the disenfranchised voters were black"

Black republicans you Clymers....

[Publius6961]

This horse is so dead it's liquefying. Can't you hear that splashing noice every time they beat it?

This is the perfect message to send them if we were inclined to freep.
Anybody got an email address?
He he he he

[GuillermoX]

Same thing I was thinking. Where, exactly, are all these "voters" who were not allowed to vote? I suspect they are in their graves and have been for a while now.

WRONG!! Having just driven through the Florida panhandle and seeing how much territory it covers, WHITE, REPUBLICAN, voters were disenfranchised by calling the state early. What about the military ballots?

Ugh! I don't even want to go there. This subject makes me vibrate with rage every time I think about it.

We need to post the article from Harper's that this paper so lovingly endorses.

And another thing -- I have a bone to pick with the Taft election....

[OldFriend]

Guess they are happy that so many military ballots were thrown out. For shame.
