In 2000, George W. Bush famously (or infamously, depending on your point of view) won Florida by a margin of 537 votes. If those 537 people had stayed home and the two candidates had gotten the exact same number of votes, who would have won the state?

Is there any legal provision for what happens in the event of an actual tie?
