(65,127 posts)which had obvious problems with the vote and the vote was close, but twice Gore offered Bush to recount the votes in the entire state to which Bush; declined, because the corporate media had already prematurely declared him the winner.
All Bush wanted to do was run out the clock and he knew the U.S. Supreme Court was in his pocket.
The Florida Supreme Court finally ruled to count all the votes in the state and that's when the U.S. Supreme Court which had been stalling the process the entire time basically ruled the clock had run out as some arbitrary date mattered more than determining the intent of the people.
When you speak of "selective recounting," Florida had selective voting, but the U.S. Supreme Court didn't give a rat's ass about that.
