U.S. presidential election, 2000 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (5262 words) |
 | The U.S. presidential election of 2000 was one of the closest elections in U.S. history, decided by only 527 votes in the swing state of Florida. |
| This election was only the fourth or fifth time in United States history that a candidate had won the Presidency while losing the nationwide popular vote. |
| The outcome of the November 7 election was not known for more than a month after the balloting, because of the extended process of counting and then recounting of Florida presidential ballots, which would ultimately decide the election. |
