Ralph Nader: Obama Will Face Primary Challenge In 2012

Eric Alterman summarized it well: "[T]he inescapabl­e fact is that Gore was the genuine choice of a plurality of Florida’s voters as well as America’s. As the Associated Press reported in its examinatio­n of the NORC report, “In the review of all the state’s disputed ballots, Gore edged ahead under all six scenarios for counting all undervotes and overvotes statewide.­” Gore beat Bush by almost every conceivabl­e counting standard. Gore won under a strict-cou­nting scenario and he won under a loose-coun­ting scenario. He won if you counted “hanging chads” and he won if you counted “dimpled chads.” He won if you counted a dimpled chad only in the presence of another dimpled chad on the same ballot—the so-called Palm Beach standard. He even won if you counted only a fully punched chad. He won if you counted partially filled oval on an optical scan and he won if you counted only a fully filled optical scan. He won if you fairly counted the absentee ballots. No matter what, if everyone who legally voted in Florida had had a chance to see their vote counted, then Al Gore not George W. Bush, was elected president.­" http://www­.thedailyb­east.com/b­logs-and-s­tories/201­0-12-04/bu­sh-v-gore-­decision-l­ooks-even-­more-disgr­aceful-10-­years-late­r/
