Not only were many military ballots not counted, but a lot of "extra" Algore votes were counted.

Recall that Dade County started a re-count, went halfway with it and, then, after discovering 200 or-so more votes for Algore, stopped the re-count.

The reason why they stopped the re-count was that they had re-counted all the Democrat precincts and those remaining were Republican.

It is the nature of punch-card ballots that, as they are re-counted, they will continue to register more votes -- as the chads get knocked off by all the handling. These "new" votes will tend to be in the same proportion as the votes already counted. So, if you re-count Democrat precincts, the Democrat will gain votes. The Dade County Board of Elections knew that, if they counted the Republican precincts, Bush would gain back most -- if not all -- of the "new" votes that were tallied for Gore. So, they stopped the re-count.

Bad enough. But then the bitch on the Florida Supreme Court demanded that the extra Dade votes be counted in the official total -- even though the county's re-count hadn't been completed. She was either acting out of gross ignorance -- or the sleaziest of partisanship.

Those Dade County votes are still in the official total...

I believe that “sleaziest” is probably correct. When you are honest and believe that most others around you are honest, like most normal people, you dismiss the probability of outright fraud. You are not a liar, you do not engage in fraudulent acts, so you assume most people operate the same way as you. The problem is we are not dealing with honorable people who can be trusted. Unfortunately, our best qualities are used as weapons against us. Just like the mooslimbs, the libs use our values and natural law to undermine us. Character, honor and natural law work, but only among honorable people. There needs to be a reckoning where we clean out the garbage once and for all. We allowed them to creep in due to political correctness. We need to never allow it again.

It was 10 years ago. The more time they spend fighting yesterday’s elections, the less time they have to fight today’s.
