Florida election 2000 -- Sundance Channel shows "Unprecedented" at 9pm ET
This is THE film about the 2000 election in Florida. Greg Palast is his usual investigative self. Industrial-sized Xanax recommended 30 minutes prior to viewing.

See Pickles for Xanax details, including "What to tell your doctor."

For the documentary, try this...

Unprecedented: The 2000 Presidential Election
directed by Richard Ray Perez and Joan Sekler

YEAR
2002

50 MINS, Color

As the pundits said repeatedly on election night 2000, "It all comes down to Florida." However, as documented in this film by Joan Sekler and Richard Ray Perez, incompetence and petty corruption were altering the final tally from the moment the Sunshine State's polls opened. Citing a suspicious pattern of irregularities, injustices and purges of African Americans from the voter records, the filmmakers present a provocative piece of advocacy journalism that -- contrary to suggestions to "just get over it" -- prompts outrage.

If you've got digital cable, you've got the Sundance Channel.

Nothing really new for anyone active here, but a good watch noentheless. I was happy that thsoe "not here" are getting the chance to see it, albeit on an esoteric Starz channel.
