Ballots of such dubious provenance?

NO WAY to trust any of that “evidence”

Thanks for not sticking this on your blog and claiming credit for it.

But likely, the media and their liberal friends got away with the narrative about how GW Bush stole the election.

Mr. Bush would have kept his lead, according to the ballot review conducted for a consortium of news organizations

It was good of the NYT to acknowledge this, but it still misses the point. The Democrats did not intend the ballot review to be conducted by a consortium of news organizations, or by any other entity pretending to at least a semblance of neutrality. The dems intended for the review to be conducted by democrat operatives empowered to cheat.

The report that came out soon after the hubbub had subsided was that if Gore had gotten everything he asked for Bush would have won, but if Bush had gotten everything he asked for then Gore would have one.

This is an obvious case why elections need to be handled with a lot more care than currently.

I would be in favor of all elections moving to a Saturday/Sunday and then doing away with mail in ballots and making it difficult to get an absentee ballot. If most people had to go to a polling place and present proper ID that would help eliminate most voter fraud.

Then if we do away with electronic voting and require ballot security similar to what is provided for the Oscar results, then we can eliminate fraud by political parties.

It is really sad that in almost all elections one of two things happens: one candidate wins in a landslide, or the result is so close that voter/party fraud can open the door to overturning the true result.

In either case our votes don't count.

Oh Boy! That only took eighteen years and three Presidents.
