Excuse Me... But In Many Ways... This ENTIRE SITE Was Founded Over A STOLEN ELECTION

177. That's not quite what happened.

Although I've heard your version before. It's probably what most people believe.

An automatic recount was done because it was so close. Actually, it wasn't that close, so 50,000 balots were spoiled in Duval, Broward, and one other county I can't remember, and the spoilage was blamed on the butterfly ballots. This and old trick: double-punch a bunch of balots and then claim "the po' Black folk is jus' too ignerant to vote," which is why the butterfly balots were banned under the Voting Rights Act.

In one precinct in Duval, one-in-five ballots were double-punched, which should raise a few eyebrows, except they also, like Brevard used the butterfly balots. By the way, VNS knew where all the missing votes were on election night, and their guy was on the local news explaining why they "uncalled" the election. That's how I know about this, and it turned out VNS called it to the penny, because I checked for spoiled balots when the returns came in.

The automatic recount triggered another condition in FL law where a hand count could be requested in any county that had a different result after the hand count. Gore requested a hand count in all of those counties which the law allowed. Volusia, Palm Beach, Broward, and Dade. He was accused by the Bush people of cherry-picking, which was a lie.

Bush made the case that this was unfair since these were blue counties, and sued for relief. The FL Supreme Court ruled in his favor and granted the relief he asked for. We were going to hand count the whole state. Then Bush decided this wasn't fair either, and got the SCOTUS to just make shit up.. which they did.
