By what percentage would Gore have won FL if it was fair?
OK, I know that there were many problems, but of those that CLAIMED to have voted for Gore through exit polls, by how much would he have won?

Basically I'm wondering if anyone remembers what the VNS said the outcome was when they were projecting it. Did they give a percentage by which Gore had been projected to win the state?

So counting undervotes, overvotes, and the Jews for Buchanan, by about how much would he have won? I know there were even more problems (felons purged, voter intimidation) and those are EXTREMELY serious, but these people weren't even ABLE to make a vote. I'm curious of those that did vote, by about how much would Gore have won by? What about if the state's voting was flawless (no intimidation, fraud, etc), by about how much would it have been?

BTW does anyone have a good website regarding the mess? I paid attention to the thing, but I don't think I got the details. Thanks.

1. He probably would've won by about 100,000 votes.
So whatever that translates to, in percentage. Probably around 49-51%. It still would've been close, but not nearly as close.

We have the corporate media, Ralph Nader, and Gore's performance during the first two debates (not to mention some bad decisions he made, like pulling out of Ohio) to thank for why Bush even had a snowball's chance in hell of winning.
