We never elect a president by Popular vote.
A president is elected by the Electoral College.
Rules can be changed and other things done to alter this end result.
That was what Florida in 2000 was all about.

You keep forgetting that we do not elect a president by popular

was 7 Justices who overruled the Fla Supreme Courts decision (The
5-4 vote was for remanding it back to them).

Yeah, and, as a side note, it's always interesting to note that judges are
only "activist" if they do stuff that the conservatives don't like. There's
apparently nothing "activist" about, say, five judges selecting as President
the candidate with a half-million fewer votes.
