I guess no better time than today to post some of my filming location visits for Recount: The Story of the 2000 U.S. Presidential Election. While I was in Jacksonville, Florida last year, I decided to visit a few spots used in the film.
I actually stayed in the same hotel used in the film, the Hyatt Regency at 225 East Coastline Drive in Jacksonville, Florida. As you can see, there was a lot of construction happening.
They shot this scene on the 18th floor of the hotel.
Here is my room to show how it compares since renovations.
Gore was stopped from conceding at this convention center located at 1000 Water Street in Jacksonville.
The Clark Center is the Riverplace Tower at 1301 Riverplace Road in Jacksonville.
Bob Balaban played Ben Ginsberg in the film.
