My gut feeling is that if you sampled all ballots over the country, you would find errors of folks voting for someone they did not intend to vote for. People tend to make errros especially if they feel rushed or anxious. I would put that at least 2%.

HiTech--Wait for Buchanon to soon come on television and profess there's no way he could have received the votes he did in Palm Beach County. For example, there's a place called Century City in Palm Beach County. It's an extremely large senior citizen housing complex comprised mostly of Jewish elderly voters. These seniors make up the bulk of voting within that particular precinct. It went overwhelmingly in favor of Pat Buchanon. A commentator on NBC amusingly proclaimed that Yassir Arafat would have gotten more votes than would Pat Buchanon. Is this any way to reward those senior citizens? To make their votes go for the person they'd like least to be elected to anything?
