ot? For diehard AMAT on topic fans our apologies, this is too important a topic for our entire economy not to present to sharp minds for feedback. Now onto the rant..

Rich if a person punches the card for TWO presidents, baby
they KNOW the card is worthless. Right? I mean that's it.
At that point they need to ask for another card or recognize
as they walk out the card is invalid.

There is another possibility you know. I'd be interested to know how many cards are multiple punched for Pres. Perhaps, and this is NOT out of the question, some voters feel that
they are being asked who they would vote for so they indicate just that, i.e., they would vote for Gore and Nader. So they punch both. It's funny but I was NEVER told not to vote for more than one candidate! Of course somewhere in writing it must tell you only pick one.

Now, your point this may be indicative of fraud is more troubling and I imagine the Judge is investigating that aspect. It's ironic, our States' lotto each week is better 'audited' and controlled than these elections.

Perhaps that can be explained because private accounting firms play that role not the government.
