Both election results were very controversial


2016 because of the Russia investigation

2000 because of Bush v Gore

I would say 2016 is more controversial because...

1. Hillary won the popular vote by way more than Gore did

2. 2000 at least resulted in the election of, more or less, a conventional politician


THough you can argue more of the Left's hatred of Bush was due to how that election was resolved, while for Trump it was more about how bad a person he was and his campaign itself.

2000 would've been a sleeper without the Florida incident if Bush had won the state a bit more convincingly and/or if Gore had won...unless New Hampshire, Wisconsin, New Mexico, or Oregon had been the lightning rod.

2016 was insanity as soon as Cruz jumped in.


I said the results not the campaign it self



So basically Bush v Gore legal case vs Russian Involvement
