    No, it clearly did not, or we would be on a very different trajectory as a nation right now.

    I understand that after all the recounts were in that Gore actually won. But that didn’t matter, because the establishment lied and cheated to keep Gore out and let W in, whom they knew would cater much more to their interests. The FL state politicians, the corrupt news media, and the Supreme Court all colluded to just give the election to W even though he lost.

    Are you seriously claiming that there is a lower probability of such cheating taking place in the current era? Do you think our institutions are now better prepared to ward off this type of foul play? If so, I think you’re delusional.

    To me, this is further intentional torpedoing of his own campaign by Biden. Just more proof that he’s a terrible political strategist at best, or at worst is actively trying to lose so they can fundraise off the cheetolini for four more years.

      Florida was declared for bush, but gore won over Floridians, which was your original point. I haven’t been to Florida since I was 17, so I really can’t speak to the integrity of the elections systems, nor should anyone want me to speculate.
