![]() Statistics from the US government no less http://www.fec.gov/pubrec/2000presgeresults.htm Bush 47.87% (50,456,897) vs Gore 48.38% (50,999,897) Doesn't look overwhelming to me. You are misinterpretting the data that the map represents. - Carl - "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:ja2Cb.310866$Dw6.1046389@attbi_s02... If you do a web search you'll see reports of between 200,000 to 500,000 popular votes favoring Gore and of course an argument of what that really means. C'mon, the USA Today election map at http://mwhodges.home.att.net/usmap-large.gif clearly shows that the country OVERWHELMINGLY supported Bush. The fact that the big cities happen to have more dead voters just graphically illustrates who is GETTING the tax money, versus who is PAYING it. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

You are misinterpretting the data that the map represents. And that number for Gore is more people than have *ever* voted for *any* candidate for public office in America. -- David Dyer-Bennet, , www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ RKBA: noguns-nomoney.com www.dd-b.net/carry/ Photos: dd-b.lighthunters.net Snapshots: www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/ Dragaera/Steven Brust: dragaera.info/ |
