Final Florida voting results on hold. Why?
IS THIS A GOOD TIME TO ANNOUNCE THAT BUSH LOST THE FLORIDA ELECTIONS?

Problem is, the major newspapers who sponsored the study are afraid to release the results. Now why would that be if not that the study clearly shows that more Floridians voted for Gore than for Bush?
Coincidently, according to my information the NORC
consortium got the final results of the count on September 10. They were supposed to be released Monday, September 17. The consortium has put the news release on "indefinite hold" because of the national disaster of 9/11.
There have been a *lot* of pro-democracy folks calling to pressure
NORC into letting it fly NOW. They say that the timing isn't right, they can't get decent coverage now, etc.
The other possible/probable side of the story is that, as you say,
the results would be known immediately if they favored Bush. Many
folks are theorizing that they can't even *spin* it into a Bush win, like the Miami Herald did. There's some debate about whether it'd be best to release the data now or when GW's popularity wanes again. As it's bound to do.
Word on the street is that the top folks in the media partners in
this study have long been pressuring them *not* to release the data. That would explain why there has been delay after delay, and now an "indefinite hold" on the info. I don't believe their website even gives a status report, and there have been few news releases about the delay.
One good source of information and speculation about it is The
American Prospect talksite. There are at least two discussion threads devoted to the heist. Pay particular attention to the info posted by Paul Lukasiak, as he's been personally investigating the vote steal from the beginning. Here's the site:

You'll find a good search engine there and good links to the few
sources that *can* be found. (Sadly though, in a few places there
you'll also find much too much bickering with freepers.)
