ctb,

I just saw a news report which showed the "butterfly" ballots. I find it hard to believe even a semi conscious person would miss the huge black arrows which pointed to the candidate. This is much to do about nothing but will probably change the election results.

Election officials said 19,120 ballots in the county were nullified because they showed more than one vote for president.

It sure would be fun to know how that breaks out by political party.

From the article you posted:

``It was so hard to tell who and what you were voting for. I couldn't figure it out, and I have a doctorate,'' voter Eileen Klasfeld said.


Was she one of your classmates?
