Anything that close needs to be recounted. The wasted votes (for both sides) that were discovered could have easily changed the election. The behavour was indeed not stellar I'll agree with that but, it took a SC ruling to sort it all out. Close elections are no fun to be honest.......

OMG! After 2000, the mainstream media went through every scenario possible on the vote in Florida and Bush won them all! Is it equal protection to only have a recount in Democratic counties? Gore screwed himself by claiming a recount on only selected counties, which isn't allowed in Florida law anyway.
The 538 number was the certified number...the actual number, after MSM analysis, was much higher....and this is AFTER the MSM quelched the vote in western Florida (which is heavily military and conservative) by announcing Florida had gone for Gore with the polls still open for more than an hour.
I'm amazed that anyone is still playing that card....
