Do your homework. Fact- not opinion, fact- is that eht so-called
"popular vote" was undecided. A statistical tie, more accurately.
We will *never* know who actually received the most votes, because:

1) Not all votes were counted. It's legal in most places to discard
votes if they won't tip the electoral scales. Therefore, in the
"Bush" states many Gore votes (and potential additional Bush votes)
were discarded, and vice versa.

The majority of which were military absentee ballots.
