Just watched the Boy Boy video on George Bush’s Masterclass, and they made me think about which U.S. President was actually worse.

The ballots had “hanging chads” which are basically hole punches that failed to completely tear away from the ballot. Bush tried to claim that these ballots that weren’t fully punched were invalid, his brother Jeb was governor of Florida of the time and agreed, so they basically ‘recounted’ until the got the winner that they wanted.
Thank you for such a clear explanation. As a non-American I’ve always been confused by the “hanging chad” thing. This has put so much context around it and made it super understandable.
