Motive, Gore never asked for “a full and fair recount.” He sought a recount in heavily Democratic counties and challenged the absentee ballots in Republican counties. He even challenged the absentee ballots cast by the military.
Clinton was president for 8 years before the election. Janet Reno, his attorney general, was from Florida and well schooled in Florida politics. Any attempts to exclude African-American voters would have been a clear violation of federal election laws. Where was the Democratic Justice Department when this alleged vote fraud occurred?
In the final analysis, Gore would have been elected president if he had carried Tennessee, his home state. He was rejected by the people who knew him best.
