OK, I've cut and pasted the statute to the thread at least twice, and I know you can read it as well as I can. Can you tell, by reading the statute, whether it means that all the checkoff boxes have to be in one row either on the left or on the right, or whether they can alternate? I sure can't. I could interpret it either way. So how can anyone say the ballot violates the law?

I understand Gore's frustration. He probably should have won the election, but we can't say that as a matter of law, he won, unless the ballots are thrown out, and even then, all he can get is a new vote and hope it goes his way. Or else throw out Palm Beach completely?
