Your Conbstitutinis clear about that - whoever gets enough electors is the winner. The central complaint about Bush was that the count in Florida was intentionally fudged and the count was prematurely stopped, to give him electors that should have gone to Gore.

Pretty obviously anybody elected with fewer votes than their opponent should take note of that innthe way they behave in office. They should never pretend to have the endorsement of the American people. For example, last time it would have been more appropriate for Bush to call in Gore to consult on all kind of issues. And I'd have thought that there should be a moral obligation on a candidate who won in this way to ensure that the system was reformed so that it couldn't happen again.

My understanding is that neither of those two things has happened over the last four years. And I don't imagine it'll happen over the next four years if the boot is on the other foot.
