The true statement is:
The Supreme Court ruled, after a partial recount of Florida votes, that Bush won the election.
This refers to the landmark case Bush v. Gore, in which the Supreme Court effectively decided the outcome of the election by stopping a recount of votes in Florida, thereby allowing George W. Bush to win the state's electoral votes and secure the presidency, despite losing the national popular vote.
