americas democracy
History

inna [77]4 years ago

The 2000 presidential election was extremely tight. When the votes had been counted, the democratic side demanded a recount in Florida. This election was quite unique because the recount lasted much longer than expected. This forced the Supreme Court to take a stand, and the court eventually decided that the Florida votes went to George W. Bush. Because of this, he won the election with 271 electoral votes--one more than what was needed to win the electoral college.

In your opinion, would you say that this demonstrated the strength and resiliency of American democracy? This is what your assignment asks, and from this point forward, it's all your opinion :)

What is significant about the text of the oath giving the person taking it a choice between the words "swear” and "affirm?"​
DaniilM [7]
An oath is a verbal promise to tell the truth made while holding the Bible. A witness may choose to swear an oath on another relevant religious text. An affirmation is a verbal, solemn and formal declaration, which is made in place of an oath. A person may choose to make an affirmation rather than taking an oath. It’s making sure they promise not to break it and if they do they have their own words against them.
