32. the New York zero votes
Edited on Sun Mar-09-08 09:42 AM by MonkeyFunk
were NEVER part of an official count.

They were initial canvasses - and were corrected when the OFFICIAL count was made. No comparison.

Also, there weren't 100,000 votes discarded in LA. That was the highest possible (and I thought it was more like 70k, not 100k), presuming that EVERY independent voter screwed up his/her ballot.

Edit: And how on fucking Earth does that excuse what happened in TX? What is WRONG with people? What's wrong with pushing for a system wherein everybody who wants to vote gets to vote, and every vote is counted - REGARDLESS of whom they vote for?
