Someone said the same thing about So. Cal. In fact, I suspect that's a major reason Zogby missed on Cal, but was pretty close overall.

<< I heard from a pilot that the Dems were having masses of non-citizens vote in the Miami area.>> What, he observed this during a fly-over? This type of dubious innuendo serves no purpose.

The ballot confusion is a case of people not paying attention. I've looked at the ballot and any idiot who put a small amount of effort into looking at the thing before they start punching holes would be able to vote for their choice. There is no doubt better ballot layouts, however, this one is acceptable. Such silliness.

Dear Zoltan: This is my last post that I care to make regarding the ballot commentary of Palm Beach County Fla.
1. I voted in Palm Beach County. A week before the election they sent to EACH PERSONS HOME a sample of the ballot and instructions on how to fill it out.
2. Upon entering the polling station a person at the door handed out to each of us ANOTHER exact copy ballot, asked if we needed ANY help in understanding how to fill it out.
3. The ballot had ARROWS pointing to the HOLES next to each name which one was to poke out for their selection

In my personal opinion, anyone who could not follow those simple instructions and who refused to accept any help either before coming to the polling station or once entering the polling station probably is not capable of making an INFORMED DECISION as to their vote anyhow.

A professor from our local University who teaches CONSTITIONAL LAW (FAU is the school) was on T/V and said there is NO LEGAL GROUND to contest those ballots.

OK, I have given you my personal and an independent PROFESSIONAL opinion on those ballots.
Now, regarding voter fraud. It was reported to me by an EYEWITNESS that the Democrats were paying $70 for each absentee ballot from persons in Dade County.
Gore has announced he is sending a team of HIGH POWERED ATTORNEYS to Florida in an attempt to steal the election from the people, in that their initial efforts appear insufficient.
Bush has announced he is sending Howard Baker a renowned Respected and trusted individual to Florida to observe the recounting of the votes on Bushes behalf.
I think that OUGHT to show you the difference between the two candidates. Anyone who thinks for ONE MINUTE that Gore would not DO ANYTHING, SAY ANYTHING, PROMISE ANYTHING to win this election is fooling themselves. If by the GRACE OF GOD Bush wins this election in spite of it all we AS AMERICANS should get down on our hands and knees and thank our Almighty of whichever faith for saving us from what would appear to be a very dangerous individual. JDN

so you are saying that the Dems have been using voter fraud tactics in a state that the brother who is the Govenor of Fla. is overseeing.... and counting ballots, logging into the Fla. Sec of State computers on National TV.... are you insane... listen all this talk of Jeb better bring home Fla. don't you think that it is just a bit more plauseable that you are very very mistaken.... I think you are off your rocker. There is no dobt that the Seceret Service will investigate with the FBI..Jeb and his cohorts for votor Fraud if anyone..so save it! The Federal Gov't is going to get to the bottom of this and fast. You better hope to god that Jeb and Fla and the GOP did not do anything misleading here. This will be tied up in the Federal Supreme Court for monthes.
