"He did win the popular vote."
doesn't matter. Like you mentioned, he won in the Electoral college;
that is ALL that matters... it keeps a bunch of a-holes in NY and CA
from picking the president.

You haven't watched the news then.
They did do the recount, remember? He actually did win the popular vote...I
think it was only by 50 some votes, but that doesn't even matter because
the
Electoral college decides who's in.
I'm not saying it was good or bad for our country (Bush), but he did win.
Did everyone simply ignore that? He did win the popular vote.


I did a little research on the matter of "popular vote totals"...and I do have
a couple sites in my fav folder, so if anyone wants them, just ask. = )
The totals after the recount still had Bush over Gore.
Being so darn close, I don't blame Gore for wanting a recount. However, I
didn't like it when he wasn't satified and wanted them recounted again. That's
just being a baby and having a sissy fit.
That aside, I wanted to mention that the total I first talked about was the
total *after* the recount was stopped by the courts. Mr. Bush was considered
the Presidential winner, but Florida still recounted those ballots anyway. It
didn't matter that they didn't and it wouldn't change anything, they just
wanted to know for sure.
I can understand that too. I wanted to know as well.
After all of that counting, recounting, and then the re count of the recount
and addition of the counties that were told not to recount..the man (Bush)
still had more votes.
Not by much at all. However, he did actually win the popular vote.
Whether anyone thinks that's a good thing or a bad thing, that is their opinion
to have.
To each his own.
However, to say that he did not win the popular vote is simply false.
