Did we have President Gore? Unfortunately no.

it wasn't decided by votes. it was decided by courts.

Again, did we have President Gore? No we did not. He stuck his head left and bam lost the election. Thanks 3rd party voters!

Courts wouldn't be involved if it hadn't been so close, so yes it was vote related

[-] commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 4 months ago

this can't be proven. courts may have become involved anyway, for some other reason. you can't prove a counterfactual.

[-] VirtualOdour@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 months ago

OK sure but thy point is the reason they were involved is the vote was so close, meaning that wasted votes did matter very much

the votes didn't decide that election.
