Biden preaches unity, promises to address coronavirus crisis in first speech as president-elect

Thanks for the response. If I remember 2000 correctly: Florida just certified the vote before they would have to forfeit their electoral college votes. Gore just conceded when he had to. We need to let the official procedures now play out into December, or if the courts shut all of challenges down, then we can make any comparisons with 2000. MHO

Thank you, what happens will happen. Let's not put one man above our fellow country man like he's some god. Not you just in general terms

PFC (Join to see) - Nope a Supreme Court decision eventually limited the recount allowing Bush to win. It was not settled until 5 weeks after the election. Then the Democrats pouted and claimed Bush was illegitimate because Bush was selected and not elected. News services conducted a recount and ever recount showed Bush won Florida. The whole brouhaha started because the wonderful news organizations issued an early incorrect announcement and declared Gore won Florida befor polls closed in the Florida Pan Handle causing Bush voters to leave polling stations etc. Gee imagine the press being incorrect in calling an election result. The early call was not corrected and Bush believed he had lost. Bush called Gore and conceded. Consultants later informed Bush the media had been wrong Florida wasn’t lost. Bush withdrew his concession and the legal war was on. https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/congress-certifies-bush-winner-of-2000-elections
