11.2: Discussion Forum: Did the Supreme Court REALLY mess up the Election of 2000? Options Menu: Forum
Weve lived through the tightest election race in all of U.S. history. Even tighter than the one in 2016. As such, we need to find something as close to the truth as possible about the Supreme Courts role in this election. So heres what you need to do:
1) Read Chapter 14.
2) Read this summary of Bush v. Palm Beach County Canvassing Board: http://www.oyez.org/cases/2000-2009/2000/2000_00_836/
3) Read this summary of the Bush v. Gore decision: http://www.oyez.org/cases/2000-2009/2000/2000_00_949/
4) Go to the DISCUSSION BOARD forum called 12.2: Did the Supreme Court REALLY mess up the Election of 2000?
5) Answer that question in at least 200 words. Feel free to reply to anyone elses postings here, though it isnt mandatory for this assignment.
