Ah yes.. the Florida 2000 election...where the courts granted a recount, then stopped a recount, and simply handed Florida (and thus the presidency) to George W Bush. His little brother Jeb.....Governor there at the time.
Of course at no time did Gore ever lead in the count, even after an independent group recounted all of the Florida votes. But, somehow, the courts handed Florida to Bush.

Anybody else remember the stories of people going around asking homeless people to fill out ballots?
The MSM projected Gore won Florida before all of the polling places closed. The panhandle counties, which usually vote Republican, are in a different time zone than the rest of the state. It’s plausible that this wasn’t a mistake.

I know. But the margin of victory is so much higher now.
Well, I am sure that Republicans learned from their mistakes and they will also be mailing in ballots that can't be authenticated... And the Libertarians, and the independent parties also... there will be mailing ballots for everyone! Everyone wins next election!
