The 2000 presidential election in the United States was very close, and the decision came down to the results of the presidential voting in the state of Florida. The election was finally decided in favor of George W. Bush over Al Gore by a U.S. Supreme Court decision that stated that it was not appropriate to hand count ballots that had been rejected by the voting machines in various counties. At that time Bush had a small lead based on the ballots that had been counted. Imagine that you were a lawyer for George W. Bush. State your null and alternative hypotheses concerning the population vote totals for each candidate. Given your hypotheses, what would you argue about the results of the proposed recount—if it had actually occurred?
