Well, the logic is simple: Bush number one on the list; number one punch-hole; Gore, as number two on the list should have been the number two punch-hole. Unfortunately, however, Buchanon was the number two punch-hole.

Indeed, there were arrows pointing to the respective punch-holes. However, there were also long bold lines that pointed directly to the respective punch-holes which aided in the confusion.

The confusion is proven by the evidence of the Palm Beach County voting.

I think mistakes happen all over and are usually taken in stride. In this case, a very small percentage of people were confused about punching the hole at the right place (and there was room for confusion). Now, the problem is this small percentage of people seem to be making a significant difference.
I think party elders from both sides should get together and be ready to arbitrate before things start going out of hand. This is the best time to do so before things get messy.
