More Election Trivia

Well, Kerry was very civilized and magnanimous in conceding the victory to Bush. It takes a great man to not be a poor loser and to want to continue to have a good working relationship with the winner.

Here's some more facts I found to be interesting: 1. About 120 million Americans voted. That's about 60 percent of everyone eligible to vote, and the highest turnout since 1968.
2. Bush won a majority of the popular vote (more than half of all votes cast), the first presidential candidate to do so since 1988. In the 1992, 1996 and 2000 elections, no one got more than 50 percent because other candidates in those races also won millions of votes.

I guess America really is solidly behind Bush. Let's use that strength and support our troops and those making decisions in this war on terror.
