New study claims Bush actually won in 2000
Apparently the newest counting of undervotes puts him on top:

http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/31/politics/bush-gore-2000-election-results-studies/

Not sure what to think about this. Why all of a sudden is this result being produced?

It still shows double vote inclusion going to Gore. So confusing.

The article in the link seems pretty straightforward and shows that under any possible legal counting Bush would have won.

The misfits and reality will never mix. :lmao:

4. Gore won...the judge in charge of the recount that never happened...

SAid he intended to use a standard that would have shown Gore won...all these hypotheticals about what standard would have been used is just BS to try and blur the fact that Gore won and on December 10, 2000, democracy ceaesed to exist in this country.

5. But isn't citing a judge that would have used a certain standard a hypothetical itself?

That argument kind of collapses on itself.

6. NO, no and no...

The recount was set to begin, the judge who was to oversee it had been chosen, then SCOTUS stopped everything...all these studies about what he might have used are BS...the judge had chosen his standard, and that standard would have shown Gore won...google it

The New York Slime and several other liberal rags did their own study/recount after President Bush was in office and concluded that if a recount was done statewide using the same standards that Gore wanted in select democrat strongholds, that Bush would have won by a larger margin.

They always leave out the part about the MULTIPLE recounts that were done and the reason the USSC stepped in was because it was getting stupid.  Gore lost all of the recounts, if I remember correctly, but every time the ballots were handled he was getting closer and closer to being the winner.

As I recall, the decision by the FSC or the USSC was that a recount could happen but it had to encompass the entire state, not just 4 or 5 targeted counties (which used confusing butterfly ballots designed and implemented by democRATS).
Liberals disgust me. (Now I don't have to remember to put it on each post).

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

Trying to recall, but I thought that the absentee (heavily Military) ballots hadn't even been counted yet.

And Sore Loserman tried to have them disqualified due to mailing dates, etc. (Even though the ballots were sent out late).

And, all the major news outlets called the race in FL for Gore before the polls closed in the panhandle, thereby causing a lot of voters to leave the long lines and go home since it was already over before they voted.

That whole thing was messed up from top to bottom.

The panhandle is in central time. It's why the networks are now prohibited from calling the state until the voting in the panhandle closes.

This particular conspiracy theory is not gaining any traction, and has never had any momentum.
If only it could be linked to chemtrails, and a certain experiment involving cinder blocks, chicken wire and a fire pit.
Then they would really be on to something.

Didn't that happen with the gubernatorial election several years back in Washington or Oregon? I seem to remember the dem losing and demanding a recount because she wanted all of the people heard. She lost the recount, but it was closer. She demanded another recount because she wanted all of the people heard. On the third recount she pulled ahead slightly and declared that the people had spoken.

If everyone is telling you you deserve something, vote for the one who is promising you the least. Be suspicious of the man or woman who tell you deserve everything. Because you don’t.” ---Mike Rowe

It's so obvious, even The Cheat would recognize it. This is to angry all of you lefties up, to make sure you vote for Hillary either out of love, or vengeance. - just as long as you all vote.

What kind of "standard" was he going to use that would have gave the election to Gore?  There should be one standard when tallying the votes after the polls close.  You count the ballots and whatever the ballot say, is what gets done.

These DUmmies are unbelievable.  They just can't get over the fact that Gore LOST.  Then John Kerry got DESTROYED.

The libs are so malicious and vindictive.
They enjoy the thought that conservatives are suffering under owebuma as much as they suffered having Bush as president.
