They said (on the Today Show)that even if the people in FL elect Gore, the electoral college of that state can over ride that and vote for Bush (thereby making Bush president). Is this true?

What I don't understand is why (on one hand) people say that every individual's vote counts but (on the other hand) the Electoral College can go above what the majority's choice and vote for the other candidate?

WHO'S choice is it REALLY?

On another note, Sylvia Browne (the psychic that is sometimes on Montel Williams' Show) predicted that Gore will be the next pres. Last night at about 3am, I heard that Bush was elected. I immediately thought Ha! that Sylvia is a fraud.... But then I woke up this morning and they said that the race was still undecided, I had to do a double take. Could Sylvia be correct after all? Hmmmmmm.
