The Perfect Tie: The Thirty-Six-Day Battle to Decide the 2000 Election

The hotly-contested battle for the presidency between George W. Bush and
Al Gore was ultimately decided by the Supreme Court.

The End of the Clinton Era

Flip this House (1994); The Yugoslav Wars (1991-1999)

The 2000 presidential election pitted Republican George W. Bush against Democrat Al Gore. Initial election returns showed that Gore had won the popular vote, but neither candidate had garnered the 270 electoral votes required to win the presidency. The election hinged on results from the state of Florida, where the vote was so close as to mandate a recount. The outcome of the election was ultimately decided by the US Supreme Court in Bush v. Gore. The court, in a 5-4 vote, ruled in favor of Bush.
