What do you find inaccurate here?
I remember the Equal Protection argument of Scalia and found it a bit ironic. However, I also remember the constant challenges by Gore, and the effort to describe "hanging" chads.

Either way, the good news is that he will never be elected again. The sad news for our country is that his legacy will be one of stupidity and failure.

I love the "Gore really won" crowd. Linus will never surrender his blanket.

Elections are held for elections sake. Most of the time, they reflect the predominant attitude of those casting votes. In a few elections, we resort to the winner of the electoral college. I do not believe it was unambiguously proven with any degree of reasonable certainty that the hanging chads were unambiguous. Or that Gore would have won.

Too bad that's not the criteria for winning the presidency, eh?
