context_page_description: Attorney Craig Waters has been the public information officer and communications director for the Florida Supreme Court in Tallahassee since June 1, 1996. He is best known as the public spokesman for the Court during the 2000 presidential election controversy, when he frequently appeared on worldwide newscasts announcing rulings in lawsuits over Florida's decisive vote in the election.
  These cases are known to history as George W. Bush v. Albert Gore, Jr. or Bush v. Gore. Waters' role in these events has been reprised in films, documentaries, and books about Florida's botched 2000 general election, which forced the world to wait for more than a month to learn who would become the next President of the United States of America.
