    Gore did win the election. He only didn’t get into office because a violent Republican coup (the “Brooks Brothers Riot”) forcibly stopped the votes from being counted.

      I’m aware that Gore did, in fact, win the election. However, without the factors that mindbleach mentioned and, I think, Lieberman being on the ticket it would have taken the powers of Brooks Brothers, Banana Republic, and Forever 21 combined to overturn it.
