I know you don't want to belabor this, but I want you to understand one thing. The same ballot was used in the last election. There was confusion then. The local election board re-approved it and both sides signed off on the format. They also can be credited with due diligence in trying to prevent any FURTHER confusion by sending out ballots to the voters BEFORE the election and even printing it in the newspaper. The fact is that they chose that specific format in order to FACILITATE the voting of the senior citizens since their judgement was that the larger print would make it easier to read. Well, that judgement was apparently wrong and it backfired. But there is no excuse for "confusion" since every voter had the opportunity to preview the ballot. At some point voters must take responsibility for their own acts. That point is when they deposit their ballot into the ballot box. This antiquated balloting system was a crises waiting to happen. Now hopefully the pols will get off their duffs and correct it.
