The Election Will Not Be Televised

But the fight over it will be. Here's a very good article in the Washington Post about black leaders in Florida fighting to make sure the votes of their community will be counted. And anyone who tells you the election wasn't stolen can read just this one little tidbit:

"Four years ago, ballots cast from black neighborhoods throughout Florida were four times as likely to go uncounted as those from white neighborhoods. Nowhere was the disparity more apparent than in Duval County, where 42 percent of 27,000 ballots thrown out came from four heavily Democratic black precincts."

That's more than 10,000 votes tossed away and since black voters went for Gore at more than 90%, that's about 9,000 votes for Gore in a state that went for Bush by 537 votes.
