Explanation:

The presidential election of 2000 was contested between the Democratic candidate Al Gore, at that time vice president, and the Republican candidate George W. Bush, then governor of Texas and son of former President George HW Bush (1989-1993).

Bush won the hard-fought election on Tuesday, November 7, with 271 electoral votes against Gore's 266 (with one translucent vote abstained in the official recount).

During the elections the controversy arose in who had won the 25 electoral votes of Florida (and, therefore, the Presidency) and the process of recounting in that state, which was ultimately ended by the Supreme Court of the United States.
