In the 2000 election, George W. Bush, the Republican candidate, won a highly contentious race against Democratic candidate Al Gore. The election famously hinged on the state of Florida, where a narrow margin led to a controversial Supreme Court decision in Bush v. Gore, effectively awarding Bush the presidency by halting a recount. Bush's campaign focused on tax cuts, education reform, and a strong stance on national security. Ultimately, he won the Electoral College despite losing the popular vote, receiving 271 electoral votes to Gore's 266.
