THIS DAY IN HISTORY -
Veteran’s Day ( 1954 ) : Armistice Day is renamed Veteran’s Day to honor American vets from all wars and conflicts
2000 Presidential Elections 7th November ( 2000 ) : In one of the most controversial Presidential Elections in modern times between Al Gore ( Vice President ) and Republican candidate George W. Bush. The election unlike normal presidential elections ended with controversy over who had won Florida's 25 electoral votes. Some television news networks had called the winner earlier in the evening with Al Gore declared the winner but retracted as the results came in. Then at 2:30 AM the networks declared that George W. Bush had won Florida and therefore the presidency. But once again by 4:30 AM the pendulum swung again as only 2,000 votes separated the two and the networks retracted their predictions. After a number of court cases involving the United States Supreme Court George Bush was declared the winner but because of the very small majority ( depending on who provides figures ranging from 500 to 2000 ) and also questions over the 58,000 names who had been taken off the registered voters list by governor Jeb Bush ( with allegations that most were thought to be democratic voters ), the 2000 presidential election will always be considered one of the most controversial ever. The election was also considered to be unusual because Al Gore gained more popular votes than George Bush but lost the election.
