"In an election marked by epic chaos, the final moments were no different — and just as close. The decision was 5 to 4. Some reporters read it as favorably for Bush, then Texas’s governor. Others read it favorably for Gore."

"But now, more than a month later, Gore was ready to concede — for good.

Facing television cameras, Gore said, “Just moments ago, I spoke with George W. Bush and congratulated him on becoming the forty-third president of the United States — and I promised him that I wouldn’t call him back this time.”

The election was over."
