Gore got up in arms about potential fraud or something in Florida.

No he asked for a recount because the difference in votes between him and Bush was like 300

that was because there was. I was around back in 2000 but I didn't really think about politics too much during the 2000 election. But going back to it now, the more I read up on that election the more I am convinced that Gore was supposed to be president. Everything I learn tells me that some fuckery was going on there

I remember that. I was in high school, I think. My first year. I remember this big deal about the counts in Florida but I didn't really look into politics at the time either. In fact, I didn't really care too much about it until Obama. Obama was the first I voted for and I do not regret it at all.

Gore most definitely did. Conceded and then unconceded.

Not sure how many times this is gonna need to be repeated, but Gore unconceded because of a difference of ~500 votes in Florida.

Trump is behind by thousands of votes in Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania. A recount isn't going to do jack shit for Trump and neither are all of his frivolous lawsuits.

Gore legitimately had an election stolen from him by the supreme court. He rolled over pretty quickly, but it was still the most obvious example of election fraud in recent history.

Outside of that, prior to 2016 claims about voter fraud generally cropped in every election but were massively limited to democrats getting angry about republicans passing laws perceived (often correctly) to limit D turnout, and Republicans making claims about "dead voters" or "paid immigrant voters." The first time I remember hearing it get a ton of air play was 2004 but I'm sure it predated that.

All things considered this is just shit we've all heard before, but the messaging of it is different due to Trump refusing to concede and the existence of insane right wing groups like Qanon propagating it more virulently and more vociferously than ever before

Yeah, Gore gave up too easily in that instance. Analysis I've seen shows that Gore actually had more votes for him if they would have been counted.

Exactly.

So.. how is that like Trump claiming the entire election was fraudulent with no evidence?
