Essential Question Did the Florida Supreme Court violate Article II, Section I, Clause II of the U.S. Constitution by making new election law? Does the non- standard recount of the votes violate Equal Protection and Due Process?

Background Information Florida Supreme Court ordered that a court in Leon County tabulate 9000 ballots by hand. It also made every county recount all votes that did not show a vote for president. Bush asked Supreme Court for review, and the court reviewed it on December 11, 2000.

Constitutional Principles Related to Case Article 2,Section 1, Clause 2 = Each state gets a certain number of electoral votes based on the number of Congress members. 14th Amendment = No one’s ballot can be devalued because of the Equal Protection Clause.

How Did Supreme Court Answer the Question? Why? In 7-2 vote, the court stated that the manual recount was fine, but in another 5-4 vote, they decided that the counties couldn’t recount the votes because there was not enough time. This is because of the Equal Protection Clause stated in the 14th Amendment.

The Impact of the Case to Society. This case showed everyone that every vote needs to be counted, if not it would be declared unconstitutional.

Why is this Considered a Landmark? This case helped solve one of the biggest and closest presidential elections ever.
