My God, I just got a chill. And Bush won by 100,000 or better, I thought.

He did. But if you take one-half-plus-one of that margin and give it to sKerry, sKerry would have won by one vote (120,000 / 2 = 50,000; 50,000 + 1 vote = 50,001). A 60,000-vote switch would have given sKerry a 10,000-vote margin of victory.

A 60,000-vote switch

A 60,000 vote switch is different than 60,000 more votes, which is what was said.
