Original Post:

The election of 2000 was one that will not soon be forgotten. It was one of the closest and most controversial elections to take place. During this election Al Gore, Vice-President to Bill Clinton, ran against George W. Bush. There were multiple surveys polled before the election even began to take place that showed just how close of a battle this would end up becoming. During the election of 2000 there were 538 electoral votes available, meaning that the winner of the election would need 270 votes. It was not until after all the votes had been tallied that this election became controversial, which is what makes it so memorable.

Al Gore was able to collect 50.9 million of the popular votes. Meanwhile George Bush only obtained 50.4 million votes. Those numbers are clear that Gore would win this race, right? While the popular votes are counted, they only count toward choosing the electors from each state. Each state gets a different number of electors based on its population. Even though Gore clearly won the popular vote, he was unable to win the popular vote in the majority of the states that had a bigger electoral vote. All due to the Green Party runner in the election Ralph Nader obtaining key votes in critical states.

Upon election night, Bush appeared to win the electoral votes of Florida by the smallest of margins. This is when the election really became controversial. The electoral votes from Florida is what would end up deciding this presidential election. However, the ballot machines were not punching through the ballots clearly enough to easily declare the winner. This led to each of the ballots having to be manually “read” and counted. This tasking was overseen by the Secretary of State and chief election officer, Katherine Harris, who just so happened to be Bush’s campaign leader in Florida. Once all the votes were counted, even the ones by hand, Bush was the victor of Florida.

The democrats demanded recounts a multitude of times throughout different counties. After a month of the democrats, “throwing a fit,” the U.S. Supreme Court stepped in and ordered that the recounts stop and claimed Bust victorious. The Supreme Court deemed that recounting the votes without a consistent standard to determine the voters intentions violated the Fourteenth Amendment.

Follow-up question and more:

Do you believe that voter fraud and tampering occurred in the President Election or 2000 or is this greatly overstated Josh?

Only 175,037 of the near 6 million votes cast were recounted. Why? Because the voting machines marked only these votes, less than three percent, as either having no vote or having multiple votes. The media went into a frenzy and a nation watched closely while the recount progressed, even though the numbers themselves and the potential for human error over proven machine procedure was ever present.

Initial problems were apparent from the beginning of the recount. Problems included optical marks on the ballots, partially detached chads resulting in unclear intentions on the ballot, and flawed designs of the ballot.
