Lets keep this in perspective.
The recount took place because our "corrupt" system in Florida has a mechanism that demands a recount if the margin of winning is very small....a good thing wouldn't you say ?
If memory serves me correct, Mr Gore filed a suit to another recount and further investigation showed that the decision was correct in awarding the electoral votes to Bush.
I do not call that "rigged".......the system worked
