this would constitute strong evidence that the average person was subtly misdirected into thinking that they had correctly marked their choice. Sorry, but I don't buy it. That comes under the category so prevalent in our society of "It's not my fault. Someone or something else made me do it." Ater publishing the ballot for anyone to study at their own convenience for as long as they want and after providing a sample ballot at the precinct, it boggles the mind that anyone would think that a ballot with two votes wouldn't be invalidated or that someone else should be blamed for punching the wrong hole. As some are prone to say, democracy is a responsibility. Knowing how to cast a vote is part of the individual's responsibility. This would be a conclusion impossible to refute in the face of thousands of such spoiled ballots. No conclusion based on opinion is impossible to refute. --Mike Buckley
