Hi globestocks,

Re: The GOP of Florida has lacked the leadership to bring ballot and voting systems to an equal level throughout the state.

Here's a prediction for you. There will be no reform of the system in Florida that has much of any significance. It will be introduced in the Legislature and it will die there. Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties may be driven into new systems by court rulings and the voters will most likely be willing to pay up for a bond issue to modernize. But not in time for the 2002 elections.

There will be no effort on the part of the U.S. congress to address either electoral or campaign reform. Because it is demographically challenged, the GOP will do everything in its power to stymie better voting systems for the less affluent areas of the country. McCain will be put in a box.
