As predicted by Gore and the mainstream media, the third party vote appears to have given the election to George Bush, who holds an improbably slim margin at 3:45 am CST of 250 votes in Florida.

With 2,500 votes in Florida, TM-guru John Hagelin, who pulled more from Gore than Bush, appears to have tipped the election to Bush. Gore's campaign staff are reported to have commented, "Hagelin!? Who the hell is John Hagelin?"

Ralph Nader received nearly 100,000 votes in Florida and is reported to be disappointed that Gore spoiled his chances to win the Sunshine State.
