Enlighten me... (Score:1)

I am not sure I am on your wavelength. What is "pitiful" about people in Ohio voting overwhelmingly for Bush? With all the *doom* that was supposed to happen and the relative smoothness of the whole process this time I don't see a bitching point. Except maybe you wanted Kerry to win.

  Being on TorgoX's wavelength is another thing entirely. :-)
  But I think he's referring to the point that it's being declared a victory when all the votes haven't been counted yet.

    Kinda like almost every other state, especially California in 2000 when a million or so absentee ballots went uncounted -- primarily votes from members of the military who often overwhelmingly vote Republican and who could have given Bush enough votes to have won the meaningless popular vote as well?
    
    Someone marked this WONTFIX years ago.
