If you go back to the thread I started last week
'A strange election scenario', you'll find that I
raised this possibility the day after the election.
It would take at least two faithless electors to
swing the election to Gore. One would make it
a dead heat, and send the decision to Congress.
[It's been pointed out that Bush's lead in
Florida is less than the margin of error of
the various counting methods. For all
rational purposes, the election there is
a tie. But elections are not a rational process,
and must arrive at single anointed winner. A
coin flip would be as fair as the various
machinations underway.]

Subject: Florida Electorial defection threat!
A Florida Electoral delegate for Dubya, (an unknown
number of electoral votes), is threatening to vote
for Gore. Apparently she is free to do so.
Her name is approximately Berta Morajelo, sounded
Spanish or Cuban. Reported on MSNBC TV, who's WWW
sucks rotten toads, so I don't visit it anymore.
