A little while later:
…Michael Moore shows a clip of CNN analyst Jeffrey Toobin saying that if ballots had been recounted in Florida after the 2000 presidential vote, “under every scenario Gore won the election.”
What Moore doesn’t show is that a six-month study in 2001 by news organizations including The New York Times, the Washington Post and CNN found just the opposite. Even if the Supreme Court had not stopped a statewide recount, or if a more limited recount of four heavily Democratic counties had taken place, Bush still would have won Florida and the election.

Vaikka ei aina kovin rehellinen mies olekaan. Siis, vielä kerran: jos kiistanalaiset 4 Floridan vaalipiiriä olisi laskettu uudelleen, Bush olisi kuitenkin voittanut. Jos koko Florida olisi laskettu uudelleen, Gore olisi voittanut pienellä marginaalilla. Linkki: .http://www.fair.org/extra/0201/fla-recount.html
Eri asia sitten on, että koko maassa Gore sai puolisen miljoonaa ääntä enemmän kuin Bush. Vaalijärjestelmähän on osavaltioittain käytävä enemmistövaali, ja se voi toisinaan yllättäviä tuloksia.
Valittiin sitten kuka hyvänsä sisäpiiriläisistä.
