During the 2000 US Presidential Election, the state of Florida had a ballot recount dispute. This dispute brought about the Bush v. Gore US Supreme Court case which determined that George W. Bush had won the election.
Florida
The state election results that were under question in the 2000 election were primarily in Florida. The state had a very close margin of victory, leading to a recount. The controversy centered around issues such as punch card ballots, ballots that were not properly counted, and allegations of voter suppression. Ultimately, the Supreme Court decision in Bush v. Gore halted the recount and declared George W. Bush the winner of Florida's electoral votes, giving him the presidency.
Former-President George W. Bush, the petitioner in Bush v. Gore, 531 US 98 (2000), claimed the hand recount was being conducted inconsistently, violating Florida voters' Fourteenth Amendment rights under the Equal Protection Clause. He also claimed the Florida Supreme Court decision allowing the hand-recount of disputed ballots created a new election law, which was outside the court's authority.On December 9, 2000, Bush asked for and was granted a stay of execution of the Florida Supreme Court's order, preventing the state from completing the recount by the December 12 "safe harbor" deadline.For more information, see Related Questions, below.
