Bush would have won even without the electoral college system, apparently, based on the number of votes I've seen reported...
I don't like the result but at least I appreciate the fact that the voter turnout was bigger, so according to my calculations Bush was elected by 30% of the voting population versus 25% last time. So this time it's more democratic. (calculations: voter turnout of 2000 was about 50%, apparently this time it was about 60%, so if Bush won by 50%, that means 25 and 30% of those that could have voted).
