Why would you make such an incredibly confusing punch-in ballot...
It's Florida!
Some people are just clueless about design.
So less people can vote
Um because the Democratic country election officials made a decision

"sore loserman" is the funniest protest sign i have ever seen
"The thing nobody would've expected is to not know who won the election"

2020 dose not surprise me at all
We clearly know who is going to win the election.
....the issue is peaceful transfer of power
This day and age, people are more aware of the Electoral College.
Who’s here during the Trump and Biden 2020 election.
Most of us I would say. It’s crazy
I am here because I was only 8 years old in 2000 so I really don't know that much about the 2000 election and given what's going on I thought I would go back and learn a little bit about it.
I am!!!
The problem is the clusterfuck of states. A federal election should have federal voting laws.
LokyNoKey they do it’s why the FBI gey called in to investigate hacking durin an election however in most states the state interferes with the ballot calls, ie the DNC👀👀
It is, and Katherine Harris is vindicated by this reality. Libs and Dems owe her an apology big time - - - -
If they know what is good for them..
The states are the reason the federal government exists. State sovereignty and local governments are why the USA exists. Decentralized power and protection of what is referred to the smallest minority group: The individual. Decentralized is how checks and balances happen. People need a refresher course in how the constitutional republic structure of government works.
@@laurieellem186
You could not be more wrong. Absolutely wrong. And biased. If you have decentralised laws , there will be obvious bias by the states who don't want the opposite party to come to power. A red state will not certify a blue candidate winning and vice versa.
The voting system and result certification of US is beyond moronic. There should be uniform laws all across the states till certification. And this process should be regulated by an independent agency , non political one. It should decide everything what we in India call the moral code of conduct.
Once that happens , states can regain their autonomy. Like in India , the autonomy of the states get suspended when moral code of conduct kicks in.
That's why even Hillary Clinton had said , India has the gold standard in conducting elections and displaying results.
@@laurieellem186 You are describing anarchy. The federal elections need uniformity in voting. Even if machines are slightly different, the ballot from each state should be formatted and look about the same. The only difference should be names at the local and state levels.

Oh boy, some people have no idea what is coming... History is repeating itself...
We’re living through history. One side is taking victory laps. But what’ll happen if 2000 repeats itself. We’re in for a worse repeat of this summer. Unless a tell-all and major political revolution is to occur.

How insulting and racist to say that minorities don’t have IDs. My Nana migrated from Mexico had a heavy accent, always had an ID on her. She wasn’t stupid. Minorities aren’t too dumb to get an ID. That’s so insulting. I can’t drive without an ID, I can’t cash a check without an ID. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have an ID.

Court case on a Voter ID Law in North Carolina that was overturned in 2016 by the Appeals Court for “target[ting] African Americans with almost surgical precision”. After compiling data, they found it “revealed that African Americans disproportionately used early voting, same-day registration, and out-of-precinct voting, and disproportionately lacked DMV-issued ID."

Why have democrats been against requiring ID to vote. Every 1st world nation requires ID to place your vote.

Nick Evans I was going to say... that statement is wildly inaccurate. Wildly.
Because if it’s not free, it’s a tax to vote
Lol, 33 people liked this comment not knowing this isn't factual.
It seems very Logical. Voter ID's should be made for free by the government problem solved
Man people need to watch this especially now.

Who is here due to Covid mail in ballots in 2020 and death of RBG?
watching now. I remember when this happened. Wait til this year becomes a history video archive. smh
Republicans and Dems have always hated each other. It's so sad.
I'm here because Judges Roberts, Barrett, and Kavanaugh were lawyers that worked with the Bush campaign to contest the election and steal the election for Bush. Al Gore won Florida and the supreme court undermined the American peoples votes. Republicans are going to attempt and probably succeed in stealing the 2020 election for Trump.
I live in LA and just voted and no one asked me for ID
Yes you are right, I I just posted in my channel how I want to vote and they never ask me about my ID, when I ask him do you want to see my ID he refused to see my ID

In the UK we have a very complicated voting system, you get a piece of paper with the candidates, and you put a cross in the box next to the candidate/party you like, before putting that piece of paper in a locked box. We also have these rules designed nationally rather than locally so there is a level-playing field

in Canada we need to bring a voter card and two government identification to vote, photo and prof of citizenship, every year when we file taxes we are register to vote.
@Blue Ocean LOL some Americans are too lazy 😂
In the US people think poc are uneducated and poor, so they say it’s voter suppression to require those things.
I will never understand what is so wrong with providing an ID to vote
3 million Americans don't have government issued ID and fraud isn't widespread as some people claim. In 2012, Iowa Sec. State Matt Schultz (R) claimed that 1000 non-citizens voted. There was only one conviction. In 2016 the most prominent case of voter fraud was a woman in Texas who voted 5 times for Trump. Nothing is wrong with it but the 3 million with no gov. ID and problems that it can cause on election day create havoc.
USA should make it mandatory and easier for Americans to get an ID.
Bobby Three Sticks they prob have ID when they go to the welfare office though.
Bobby Three Sticks also, 3 million people who don’t have ID are not concentrated into one area and aren’t going to make or break an election.
@@GalacticForceMedia
Sometimes there elections that have to be decided on a coin flip so 1 voter can make a difference.
As an arizona resident for the recent election, I loved how easy it was to not only register to vote but find info on who I was voting for.
It’s not over yet 🍿
"we didn't know who won the election on Election Day." Yeah, about that...
I can’t believe what’s going on in America right now!!!!!!
And we're back on the recount in Florida no surprise
The system is flawed to its core, Harris had nothing to do with that!
That confusing ballot layout at 2:05 really speaks volumes about how that election was fixed. Why weren't those names further apart? It was clustered for a reason
How was it rigged though? The ballot was designed by Democrats, why would they rig it in favor of Bush?
What's confusing about an arrow that points directly to the hole you should punch?
It's not biased. People need to read the directions before they take action on something as important as their vote
@@adamhalvorson6661 I bet the people that claimed they were confused about what hole to punch could turn around and do just fine for multiple choice questions and answers on a welfare qualification worksheet. It's strange how suddenly everyone is a super genius when it comes to personal gain, but cries "I'm so confused/ no fair" when something is lost/ no benefit.
Or people are just really stupid.
I don't get how the usa can have people voting without ID? In canada it's always been like that. It sounds more racist to me saying that minority's cant be bothered to get an ID
exactly
Mitchel Mahar It’s not that they can’t be bothered to get an ID, it’s that which IDs count for voting is inconsistent. You don’t need an ID to live, and many lower income people can’t afford to take an afternoon off of work to go and wait in line for hours at a government office. Also, Republicans have been known to choose what counts as a valid voter ID based off of which benefits their party the most. For example, in Texas, a conservative with a concealed carry permit counts as an ID, whereas the majority liberal student population doesn’t have their government issued student ID count. If everyone in the US was required to have a single, standardized ID for everything from driving a car to buying alcohol to voting, and it was given to the people for free, then there wouldn’t be many issues with voter ID.
@@thomashatchett4190 I don't think the ability to get an ID is divided across political lines. Its part of being an adult, come to think of it ive never even had a job where I didn't have to provide id as part of my hire package.
Mitchel Mahar it is. Trust me i know from experience
@@Mitchmyoutube I agree with you to an extent. But when "allowed" IDs are expensive and often inaccessible it will automatically detriment lower-income people. Whether that results in a political sway or not, to disenfranchise on that scale is unacceptable. A prerequisite for requiring ID to vote has to be the free and automatic provision of a form of ID to everybody.
The other lesson here is that we shouldn't be using the electoral college. While the Florida vote was disputed, Gore won the popular vote by more than half a million votes.
+Thomas Kirk The EC itself wasn't the problem; it was the winner-take-all rule which made a fiasco of the recount. If Florida had vote-by-district like Maine or Nebraska then any recount would have had only three electors at stake, not all 25. The split would have been Bush 14-11 Gore.
Thomas Kirk
That comes from winner-take-all, a game the Big Two Parties play to score all of state's electorships for the smallest possible popular votes. It has the added bonus of shutting out any third-party or independent runner from the final tally.
Ok, well if in 49 states the vote was 300-0, but one state was 0-1,000,000?
Dingers5Days GSA I don't understand your point
I love how Democrats push for a straight popular vote. I am grew up in NY and know many Republicans from there who don't bother with voting for president knowing that NY is definitely going Democrat and the same thing happens in California...
America is the only country where politicians acualy argue that people should be able to vote without ID.
Because the lawyers that dominate DC think the voters are stupid.
@Pop Films you don't have to pay ffs. your comment shows how silly american voters can be
Also the only country that elects Presidents who lose the popular vote.
@Pop Films Wait, people don't have an ID in America? What do people use to identify themselves? I can't imagine a voting system that doesn't require a legal ID...
Democrats only

@@charlieminaj2 doesn't mean they were right. Technically all they did was stop the recount so they didn't rule anything about a winner.

Biggest fraud in history of the United States presidential election
Imagine if Al Gore won...
tranquilizer agent he got the most votes. But in America the most votes doesn’t win.
9/11 still would've happened
dakruise1 Would it? Clinton left clear battle plans to go after bin Laden. Bush ignored it. Al Gore was his Vice President when he made those plans, I doubt he would have ignored them.
@@ashesmandalay1762 so bill waited for bush to do his dirty work in order to stay popular? Nice narrative.
America would have been so much more in the future in terms of medicine, research, policies, and surplus. Those horrible wars causes so much deficit.
This is happening ... just like in 2000
Friendly reminder that Gore’s loss was decided by a single state within a margin of a few hundred, and that Trump has lost by 20,000+ in multiple key states.

i think an id is basic! we havto show an id even in India
G Quantum And how much do you Indians have to pay for that id?
nyx211 its free actually..
MintGreenGhost I don't know about other places, but I just walked into a government office in my state of Florida the other day to get a state ID card. It took an hour, costed 25 dollars. It isn't really complicated. You can get an ID if you really need too. States provide them.
you have to use an ID for almost every aspect of life. I don't care if we make getting Id's free, you should have to have it to vote.
So you're comparing equal rights in a country with a class system. Do the ppl living on the streets, born and raised there have a voter ID card?
Who in this day don't carry ID's?
Love it! Thanks
In every country in Europe you have to show ID to vote. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.
Democrats don't want voter ID because they get a lot of votes from illegal immigrants. They pretend its voter suppression to make people show voter ID
@@AAA-vk4wh No evidence of that. You already need proof of citizenship to register.
@@Diddyridez Err yes you do. You must present your polling card when you go to vote. A polling card is a form of ID. You cannot just walk into a polling station and say 'my name is...and I live at...and I'd like to vote". It says clearly on your polling card "you must present this card on your arrival at the polling station".
Also we don't allow absentee ballots or same day voter registration because its an open ticket to election fraud. Everyone knows this.

Hofeller emails released in 2019 show that Voter ID models and research discriminated based mostly on race rather than partisanship as claimed. For example, one document included a district cutting through HBCU A&T State University with the city map color-coded by race and age (highlighted in red at 50%+ black). Emails also include Hofeller pushing Republicans to campaign protecting the use of inmates in gerrymandering, as prisons cannot vote but would inflate population. www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-secret-files-of-the-master-of-modern-republican-gerrymandering

"4 day wait for election results"
2020 "hold my beer"
Voting access should be exactly the same in each state. Unbelievable to call a country democratic if the people can't cast their democratic vote as fairly and legally as the next person. Shameful.
how can that guy say there's no such thing as voter fraud? im canadian and even we have voter fraud
2020 the fraud election
The first election that I voted. My butterfly ballot was in my PO Box.
this is a example why we should abolish the electoral college majority of people wanted gore in office and voted for gore but the electoral college went otherwise
LOL Jeffrey Toobin “something thing we never would have expected” Fast forward, yes, you know a thing or two in that department
Jeb Bush definitely had a hand in that.
in aus we have mandatory voting with around $100 fines if you choose not too....its annoying but definitely achieves its purpose of making the entire country pick the countries next leadership not just those who could be bothered....additionally last election i walked straight into the voting ballet without waiting at all (about 15m is the longest ive ever waited)compared to the pilgrimages mericans make to the voting box.
+z HEISYOU a case could be made, though, that you don't want the person to vote who hasn't bothered to find out much about the candidates.
And, regarding the waiting in line, I've never waited much either - I guess it can be a problem in some of these states that require ID, or that have limited voting places - tactics that this video shows Republicans will enact to discourage their opponents.
Although, Australia does have mandatory voting we don't actually watch over every person and make sure they number (and thus vote for) their preferred candidates or parties.
Really it's more like a roll call. You turn up and sign off your name. Then you can enter a legitimate vote or what we call a 'donkey vote'. This is either when ballot papers and submitted with nothing selected or filled out in some invalid way (e.g. adding your own box for the Flying Spaghetti Monster or Big Bird and marking it).
I also want to add that our electoral days (whether local, state or federal) are always on Saturdays to make it easier for citizens to attend. It also means the majority do not have to choose between exercising their democratic right or making money for their families. This is unlike the USA which holds federal elections on Tuesday. If a person works or for some appropriate reason is unable to vote on the electoral day we also have polling places set up for early voting. Again, to safeguard citizens' democratic rights.
I'm sorry but forcing people to do something like that is stupid you might as well say if you see litter on the pavement you are required by law to pick it up. There are plenty of circumstances which make it so you can turn up to vote. What if you are in a coma will you rack fines and ccjs ( the Australian version of that).
I don't want to be forced to vote either.
Well in the US we not, because we have 'life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.'
Fine content from NYT - many thanks
Pretty embarrassing this happened again.
Omg imagine in 2000 there was social media.

I don't understand how requiring a Photo ID will suppress voters. It just doesn't make sense to me at all.
+George Hamilton Not everyone has a government issued ID and they are a burden for people to get. A passport and a driver's license are both a privilege that alot of people don't have.

IChronicles 29:11 Idiotic. Democrats win because pretty much everyone hates Republicans, now that white men are dying off.

Nah, it will be challenged, but not much will change the outcome.

well its highly possible that re-counting will be in 4 states - Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia and Pennsylvania.
@Angelica Luckett and what about election in 2000?
Angelica Luckett but an audit will. There has obviously been interference. Each vote needs to be verified
Angelica Luckett we haven’t lost yet.
@Angelica Luckett Recounts would certainly help to alleviate years of conspiracy theories. I don't want to give conservatives their own version of Russiagate. The Hill did a poll that said 80% of Americans want to verify that all legal votes count while the other 20% said they want election results as soon as possible.
@Angelica Luckett Is that an acceptable excuse though. Would that be sufficient for Democrats the other way around? After all, they were very supportive of Gore to challenge it. Gore did not concede until mid-December.
No uniform standard? The standard was “intent of the voter.” If a Florida court would have set standards, the conservative members of the Supreme Court would have disallowed as changing the law! You need standards….but you cannot set standards!
When a teammate dies for the next 12 turns you have a 50% chance of killing any non-boss mob in one hit
I was 14 and just taking an interest in politics. This election is what opened my eyes to the hypocrisy and double standards on both the left and the right. Bush supporters ridiculed Gore supporters for being sore losers and needing to "accept" that Bush was eventually declared the winner. But there is not a doubt in my mind that had the results been opposite what they were, that Bush supporters would have sounded just like the same people they ridiculed.
It was definitely an exciting time for us fans of political science and human psychology. Gore was my pick and I certainly smelled a rat within the Bush camp. The state in question just happens to be the state in which your brother is Governor and the Secretary of State is part of your campaign? Regardless of your political views, you can't deny that is fishy. But I accepted it. Bush won, technically. But the guy with the most votes lost.
I support abolishing the Electoral College. It should be common sense that the person with the most votes should win in a democracy. That isn't a liberal thing. That isn't a conservative thing. Thats a moral thing. The only people in opposition of the idea are those who in who don't understand math and population. They feel that candidates would only campaign within larger states such as Texas, California, New York, and Florida if such a thing happened, silencing those who live in smaller states. But that is not mathematically accurate. It wouldn't matter how large the state is if the Electoral College didn't exist simply because it would all boil down to who has the most votes nationwide. It wouldn't matter how large the state is simply because the results wouldn't depend on who carried the state in question.
You get more votes, you win. It should be that simple.
I turned 10 on the month of the election
The electoral college makes sense. You just want a democratic party monopoly on the presidency
J R And you just want the party that fewer people support to find a way to win the presidency. Conservatives always cry about a “Tyrrany of the Majority”, while the rest of us are living under a tyranny of the minority.
Thomas Hatchett lol nah. Electoral college works. Youre just salty
@@Micolashcage1 It works in the way in which it was intended, to be able to overcome the will of the people. The debate is not if it is broken, it is instead should we keep it. No matter your political affiliation, Trump and Bush's elections were not due to the will of the people. Whether or not you're OK with the chief executive of the land not being chosen in a democratic way is the thing that's up to debate.

I’ve seen that guy on the left elsewhere.
But where?
My mind’s all foggy.
You would think people would agree that our most valuable right of voting should be more secured rather than wanting to loosen the laws and regulations to weaken the process of voting.
*Figures out how complicated the Government and politics are*
Me: Alright I’m moving back to England
In Brazil everybody need an ID to vote and even the touch ID, implemented in 2018 elections! it's fine for everyone, i don't see any problem
It’s apparently “racist”
In Brazil is for everyone, in Usa is just for blacks and latinos.
For some reason rich white liberals here in America are convinced that minorities aren’t smart enough to obtain an ID. Sounds pretty racist to me 🤷🏻
Honestly this would be fun to see in modern times
You’re gonna get your wish!
Still waiting on how they made it harder for legal residents to vote by requiring an id.
I couldn't vote until 2008. I had no idea there weren't strict i.D. lawa for voting.
We all know gore won
+Rhythm how different things might have been...
Good point, we probably would've added a lot more debt under Gore but then again, the democrats wouldn't have caused a housing crisis with Gore in the White House.
Gore may have won if they counted the districts diffe rly and The idiots should've voted correctly to bad guess bush voters were wiser voters
Take it to the supreme court instead of whining about it
We all know that life is an hallucination by inhaling oxygen
One person One vote. Its not rocket science and every country around the world that cares about the integrity of their elections will take steps to make sure that citizens are voting once in the district in which they live.
As far as voter fraud being a myth, we can easily solve this issue by examining voter rolls, presenting the data to the public, and purging the rolls of all dead, fake, or non citizen voters. Also, let’s return to paper ballots. Accuracy is more important than speed.
Maybe we should do it by finger prints. Make it a national holiday so ppl are madated to vote.
Many counties NEVER did a machine recount!
2000: I had the most close and controversial election in american history.
2020: Hold my beer.
Side note. Wow, voter fraud was once a bipartisan issue then. But now it's like oh no there is no evidence.
Corona beer!?
@@melovetorun corona, indeed!
I remember all this very well. I was up all night into the morning....when Florida went off the air around 2 am in the morning. No one could reach Florida...not the media...no one. They went off air and it was a total media blackout until around 7 am the next morning. Very suspicious activity. Also what about the bags of ballots that was found on the side of highways in Florida. Many of those was from Miami-Dade County. It was all a hot mess. Also those ballots are designed to be sneaky and tricky. I have seen candidates with similar spelled names competing on the ballots. Do not also forget we still have a pretty high illiteracy rate and you would be surprised how many people cannot read a ballot on paper or on a machine.
Oh surely the people who can't even read a single word will have formed their voting choice on their own after doing their own research and know what on earth they are doing.
Imagine being an adult american citizen who hasn't bothered to learn the alphabet for 20+ years, but apparently they are supposed have followed the political news, have researched the candidates, read their proposed policies, and then formed an independent choice based on logic - and not just "dios mio me granddauther say go vote Al-Gorro ok will vot Al-Gorrito of the domecretica parties"
Back at square one eighteen years later. 😒
Imagine if Netflix required proper ID to rent a movie.
Who needs voter fraud when all it takes to sway an election is posting memes on Facebook?
😂
