I’ve been Rip van Winkling for the last 36 years and just woke up yesterday, so I’ve never heard of the 2000 election. Fortunately, I was able to read a little bit about it on this site I found called Wikipedia:
Quote from a Jonathon chait article referenced on Wikipedia: But... Nader – who emerges from this account as the house radical of his own campaign – insisted on spending the final days of the campaign on a whirlwind tour of battleground states such as Pennsylvania and Florida. In other words, he chose to go where the votes were scarcest, jeopardizing his own chances of winning 5 percent of the vote, which he needed to gain federal funds in 2004.
