I don't believe so. The 2000 election hinged on who won Florida, and one candidate or the other was going to win it regardless. The House and Sente would have come in if both candidated had deadlocked at 269, or if a third candidate had taken one or more states so that nobody had 270 or more electoral votes.

Sorry - I did a horrible job writing this up. What I meant was that in 2000 there was a SENATE seat that potentially could have gone have been disputed in the Senate. It was B1 Bob Dornan's re-election. Dornan tried, but the Senate refused to hear it. Sanchez won with thousands of illegal immigrant votes. The R's were too weak and gutless to challenge it, even though they had the majority (I believe).
Anyway, that's what I was trying to write about, not Bush V. Gore.
