Answer:
The right answer is:
a. This case was not meant to be a precedent.
Explanation:
In its sentence in the case Bush v. Gore of 2000, the US Supreme Court stated that it can´t be used as a precedent. After halting the manual recount and hearing the arguments of the parts, the high court voted 7-2 on December 12, 2000, to overturn the Florida court´s decision, arguing that various methods and standards of the recount process violated the equal protection clause of the Constitution.
