Since you appear to be a Bush supporter the fact that Gore will win the
popular vote and more than likely Bush will take Florida and therefore the
electoral college vote, the electoral college is a good thing. But what if
it was the other way around? Would you be touting it's virtues. Just a
thought.
The close race does show how important it is to vote. Wouldn't it be funny
if in fact Florida was decided by 1 vote (right now I believe Bush is ahead
by 2000)

Well if your a Bush voter the electoral college is a good thing right now,
because Bush trails in the popular vote. Bush has 48,234,493 Gore has
48,437,330, Gore is winning in popular vote so far.. And would win by
popular vote after florida is counted again accoring to the results of the
first count.
If you add the popular vote of florida to the allready tabulated popular
vote for Bush it comes out to 51,143,629 and Gore would have 51,344,681
there by winning the poular vote.
So maybe the founding fathers knew what they were doing by making the
electoral college.

And at 2:19 AM ET the networks changed their minds again! I wish Gore would
just go away!
