In a situation reminiscent of the infamous butterfly-ballot troubles in Florida during the 2000 election, a similar ballot in the battleground state of Ohio is set to equally confuse voters of that state, with President Bush's supporters claiming it puts their candidate at a distinct disadvantage.
The box for voters to punch on the Cuyahoga County ballot to choose Democrat John Kerry for president is directly across from his name. The box to punch for Bush, however, is nowhere near his name on the ballot.
Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney are designated as ticket No. 4. The corresponding box marked No. 4, however, is much higher on the ballot. The presidential candidates are listed in such a way that Kerry-Edwards, No. 6, are listed directly across from the box marked No. 6, as pointed out by MensNewsDaily.com.

The ballot confusion is reminiscent of the Palm Beach, Fla., ballot four years ago. During that election, many voters reportedly were confused by the arrows on the ballot and the corresponding punch holes. Consequently, many election analysts believe Reform Party candidate Pat Buchanan likely received thousands of votes that were meant for Gore.
The presidential race in Ohio is expected to be tight. Talon News reported Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell said he expects a heavy turnout and noted that there are 833,000 new voters set to cast ballots this year. |
