His plan did not work perfectly, however. The laws of the universe proved too strong to be totally ignored, and mathematics proved quite soundly that Bush had been defeated by Al Gore. Sadly, the spell ignored this obvious factual conclusion and made it so Bush won anyways by appealing to the wizard's evil disciples, the conservative members of the US Supreme Court. Something about a convoluted system where people's votes end up being worth different amounts depending on what state they live in. Or voters are not worth anything if they are African American and live in Florida.

Although Ralph Nader did not help the situation by taking nearly 3 million votes away from Gore, and Gore wasn't as charismatic as Bill Clinton was, the real culprits were Katherine Harris, Jeb Bush and the entire U.S. Supreme Court. Had Gore been allowed to declare the victory that was his, America would have continued its economic success begun by Clinton, averted 9/11 (since Gore, unlike Bush, can read, and would have definitely read the August 6, 2001 national security report entitled Bin Laden determined to strike inside the U.S.) and led the world to reverse the rising tide of climate change. But as the entire world knows, that unfortunately did not happen. G.W. Bush stole electoral votes from Al Gore and brought the United States into its current mess. George W. Bush states that the election was fair, though in reality it was not. Right after his victory, Dubya was sworn in and was "livin it large" until 9/11, which then he actually had to do something, as we all know his "something" was not right (The FUCKING Patriot Act and the FUCKING War on Terror, both failures). The election will go down in history as a Republican fraud and make it clear that not only must every vote count, every vote must be counted.
