The presidential election raises several questions and even more speculations. Bush seems almost certain to win the presidency through electoral votes. However, he did not win the popular vote. That situation brings into question the electoral process, and it even questions how effective Bush can be if the majority of the voting public didn t endorse him. Whoever wins, there is no strong mandate.
Nobody has a majority of anything, and there is a lack of sense of direction for the country.
Slider campaigned in Michigan for the final election push, working the phone banks and talking to potential voters. It doesn t help, but I think this country is very strongly built on the principals of the Constitution. That s the rules and that s the way it is. Burns and Foster both pointed out that if Bush wins, he won t be in an unusual situation. If Bush wins, he will have done so with 48 percent of the popular vote.
