69. Al Gore lost nothing in 2000!

The 537 Florida vote total was a creation of Jeb and Harris who refused to follow Florida election law and count all of the uncounted votes because they knew that counting all of the uncounted votes meant victory for Al Gore. That got rubberstamped by the highly partisan Rehnquist 5. That's what really happened.
