In 2000, the election of the U.S. Presidential boiled down to a few precious votes in the state of Florida — and a recount that would add "hanging chad" to every American's vocabulary.

who seriously put my gov teacher on with this movie? also we didn’t get to watch the ending because he thought “there’s nothing exciting in the end”

I like this film. I didn’t like either candidate but I think Bush rigged it against the better candidate (Al Gore.) Love how they used the archival footage but thought we’d see Bush and Gore more.
