How Kennedy Won Hawaii's 3 Electoral Votes in 1960, even though Nixon's Electors Were Certified As Winners by the Lieutenant Governor

In the 1960 presidential election, Hawaii's 3 electoral votes were cast for Senator John F. Kennedy even though the Republican electors supporting Vice-President Richard M. Nixon had been certified the winners.

   This little noticed fact was mentioned by Supreme Court Justice Anthony M. Kennedy in his dissent in Bush v. Gore.

   The final poll taken before the election shoed John F. Kennedy leading in Hawaii by 52.3%.  Two days after the election, Kennedy's unofficial lead was 92 votes: 92,183 for Kennedy and 92,091 for Nixon.

   On November 17, however, Nixon's electors were certified the winners when the final official tally gave the Republican a 141 vote margin...

1. yup, but when they look back 44 years from now

that little episode will pale into insignificance when compared with the orchestrated dishonesty we saw this time around. Any mention of source code that couldn't be analysed? Any reports of voter intimidation? Any reports of people queueing for 10 hours plus? Any reports of huge variations between exit polls and final counts? Any reports of a complete lack of audit trails in many states? Nah, they were amateurs in 1960 - this time round it's premier league theft.

All the foregoing is to be regarded as rhetoric because I'm posting comments designed to appeal to a certain type of person...if you get my drift...

Thanks for the link.
