abstract
| - The 2000 United States presidential election was held on November 7, 2000 and pitted incumbent President Steve Martin of the National Party against former Governor of Ohio John Tanner of the Democratic Party. Martin won the election by a landslide in the electoral college with 480 electoral votes and after carrying 37 states but failed to gain a full majority of the popular vote, largely due to the strength of independent candidate Elvis Presley. The election marked the first victory by an incumbent President since 1984 and the first time since 1904 that an independent/third-party candidate managed to carry an entire state's electoral votes (Presley won his home state of Tennessee's electoral votes).
