Biographical/Historical:     The United States presidential election of 2000 was the 54th quadrennial presidential election.  The election was held on Tuesday, November 7, 2000.  The contest was between the Democratic candidate Al Gore, the incumbent Vice President, and the Republican candidate George W. Bush, the incumbent governor of Texas and son of former president George H. W. Bush.  George W. Bush narrowly won the election, with 271 electoral votes to Gore's 266 electoral votes.

    The election was noteworthy for the unusual event of the winning candidate having received fewer popular votes than the runner-up.  This marked only the fourth election in U.S. history in which the eventual winner failed to win a plurality of the popular vote (after the elections of 1824, 1876, and 1888).
Summary:     This series contains samples of the official voted ballots from the various County Supervisors of Elections that were cast during the general election of 2000.  The majority of this series includes paper ballots that were cast on Election Day, November 7, 2000. These may include absentee, write-in, duplicate, spoiled, and over- and under-voted ballots.
