I have more of a question about the whole election process than this one in particular... I wonder why it is we still support a system where Bush won by something like 3.6 million votes, yet if Kerry had gotten roughly 130,000 more in Ohio there's a good chance he'd be in office now. The idea of an electoral college may have been a good one back when results were tabulated and telegraphed in, but I think technology allows for growth from this concept. Wouldn't it be nice if one vote were actually counted as one vote.
