Hello Matt,

MM>In California it doesnt matter, its 51 seperate elections,
MM>the national popular vote does not mean anything.

In Presidential Election 2000 only the votes of the justices
of the US Supreme Court mattered.  The national popular vote
and the electoral college did not mean anything.  As such, it
was the closest election in US history, with George W. Bush
being declared the "winner" by one vote, 5-4.  :)
