Review title: New from the cradle of democracy
Product review: How can you people get so anti-Gore when the results from one state didn't matter? Gore got more votes than Bush across the whole country -- irrespective of the number of state representatives voting, Gore got the mandate from the American people. Okay - I have to say I haven't read this book, I'm only commenting on other comments. But the fuss about pregnant chads pales when compared with roadblocks stopping people getting to polling stations and whole boxes of voting forms going missing. Don't mock Gore for little things when Bush was just as bad (and more dim along with it). Also, who decided that a mechanical stamping machine was more efficient than paper and pencil? Here in the UK, we have a form with boxes and you tick a box - simple. Until the votes are stored and counted electronically, there is nothing to be gained by automation.
