A little-reported phenomenon appears to have had an impact on results in Florida in the 2000 election and could resurface in the upcoming November vote.
____According to an investigation by the New York Daily News, approximately 46,000 New Yorkers are registered to vote in both New York and in Florida, and of those voters, 68 percent are Democrats, 12 percent are Republicans and 16 percent are independent. Almost 1,700 voters that registered in both states requested that absentee ballots be sent to their homes in the other state, where they are also registered. Those numbers suggest that up to 1,000 illegal votes were cast for Al Gore in Florida.

Wait, you quoted the Washington Times. Just thought I'd say that before someone who is serious does.

Even though it's in the Washington Times, I didn't completely discount that story's credibility until I clicked the link and saw the big '10 out of 10 Terrorists Agree Anybody But Bush' ad right in the middle of the page

Drop the whole "register to vote" BS. It's ridiculous.

I just wonder how many Dems voted twice over all.

I am sure it effected the "Gore had more votes" cliche used a lot.

Forgot to add the sarcasm tags. Remember you can't quote certain sources here or they will be automatically discounted by certain people.
