Once again, you are twisting words to suit your own agenda. My first statement asked if there was any way of knowing whether a pregnant chad indicated an effort to cast a ballot or a change of heart on the part of the voter. Since ballots are not generally identifiable, there is no way to prove one contention over the other beyond a shadow of a doubt. Each is possible. One may or may not be more probable, but each is a legitimate explanation (among others) for the existence of the pregnant chad.
You have distorted my point.
In response to my remarks, you aver that I changed my story. I did not. I replied to your asinine suggestion that the only reason anyone goes to the polls is to vote for President. That argument is demonstrably false.
As I said, people vote for many reasons. According to Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk of Los Angeles County, 2,720,067 registered voters cast ballots on November 7. Of that number, 2,647,187 voted for President. 72,880 (2.68% of the total) did not record a vote for President. I guess my "ridiculous assumption" was based on something as unstable as cold, hard fact. So sorry! Please, don't let the facts get in your way. |
