And lets not forget the 2000 selection. The media told us the election was close in Florida and nationwide. But they did not tell us that Gore won the 1) National Exit Poll (13,108 respondents)by 48.5%-46.3%, a 2.7 million margin. 2) 50 state exit polls (58,000 respondents)by 50.8%-45.5%, a 6 million margin. 3) Florida exit poll (1,816 respondents)by 53.4%-43.6%. a 500,000 vote margin.
The media myth is that 1) Gore won the national popular vote by 540,000 votes. 2) Bush won Florida by 537 votes.
All we know is that the Florida recount was halted by the Supreme Court.
Gore won exit polls in the following states but lost all in the official vote. He needed just ONE to win the election. 2000: AL AR AZ CO FL GA MO NC NV TN TX VA
