Judicial Watch 2000 Florida Ballot Inspection
During the 2000 Florida presidential election controversy, Judicial Watch filed requests to inspect disputed ballots under Florida Statute 119.07 (Florida's Sunshine Law). In an innovative use of Florida's open records laws, Judicial Watch conducted its own inspection, investigation, and accountant-certified audit of disputed ballots, efforts which were mimicked subsequently by the media and other observers. Judicial Watch's independent audit, which reconfirmed a Bush victory, helped ensure that history was not rewritten incorrectly by partisans and their lawyers.
