NOTA WINS AGAIN!

"... 50.7 percent of the 205.8 million voting-age Americans cast ballots."
[Source: http://cache.voter.com/home/news/article/0,1175,2-15508-,00.html

If 50.7% voted, then: Bush (48.12825% popular) received 24.40% of the electorate's votes and Gore (48.22506%) received 24.45%.

Which means that, of the total electorate, 51.15% effectively declined -- in one way or another -- to support either of the two 'real' candidates!

Vote count (actual percent of electorate):

51.15 NOTA
24.45 Gore
24.40 Bush

[Note: NOTA = "None Of The Above"}
