An email points out an error in the Christine Todd Whitman post mentioned below. I quoted the Washington Post, which mentioned Whitman’s reference to Bush’s “three-percentage-point margin in the popular vote” in her new book. The best figure we now have puts Bush’s margin closer to 2 than 3 points. (I use 2.5 in my own articles.) Whitman may not have had the latest estimates when writing her book, but the Post should have noted that her figures are dated.
