While I agree that it is very doubtful anything about this could actually turn the election, it troubles me that the bush supporters here dont seem to care about the problems and simply blame everything on the whiny democracts refusing to give up. These are serious problems with these machines and should be taken as such. The attitudes of the bush supporters on this page only support any claims about them by "lefties".

Wait, so instead of winning by 3,500,000 votes, Bush only won by 3,496,000 votes? This is an outrage!

You should realise that the popular vote is not important as you seem to think it is. Seeing as Gore won the popular by about 500,000 votes and still lost the election. It seems like it would be more accurate to say Bush won by whatever his lead in Ohio/Florida and any other of the states that were up in the air at one point.
And I dont think it really matters what machines they were. Errors were made, period.
