There are thousands of voters registered in that county as independant.
That a fraction of them voted for Buchanan is not surprising.  I continue
to question Buchanan's veracity and Gore's, as I suspect there is a pay off
in there somewhere.

1) The actual *figures* that have come out certify that only a few hundred
people in that county were Reform party members, the rest were members of other
independent parties, and 

2) Most of the population in that area are from jewish backgrounds who took
great exception to many of Buchanan's statement about the holoucoust, and would
never vote for him.  One rabbi in the area stated that members of his
congregation were in TEARS over even the *possibility* that they had
accidentally voted for Buchanan.

So it ain't exactly what you'd call a likely prospect.
