Our Beloved Government weren't the only people using 11/9/01 to bury dodgy stories. According to this piece from the Toronto Globe and Mail, the final Florida recount was buried, too. Now, if the recount confirmed Bush as president, there'd have been no reason to bury it as it would have added to his legitimacy. About the only reason for hushing things up is if they'd found evidence that Gore had won, after all.

When I got the initial link (via someone on rasseff, most likely Avedon), it didn't point to the article in question and I had to do the search thang. On looking again, I see it no longer points where it did, but your updated URL does.
Very confusing of the Toronto Globe and Mail not to have permanent links!
