Odd… No mention of his concession to Bush on election night - then, recanting that.

He conceded to Bush, then, recanted. ~2026-40822-69 (talk) 04:23, 21 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Strange: No mention of the fact that on each successive recount he loses by a wider margin.

Latest comment: 14 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

With each FL recount his loss became greater. ~2026-40822-69 (talk) 04:25, 21 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Inconsistent - With other politicians when there have been claims of sexual impropriety it is cited and explained - but, not for Gore.

Should be a discussion of the claims of his sexual improprieties and the outcome. ~2026-40822-69 (talk) 04:29, 21 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
