You can run for the lower house at age 21, Hope this helps :)
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 :)
