A sample ballot was mailed out a week in advance. Did these idiots (yes, idiots) not look at it? We don't even get an advance look at the ballot (in the mail), but I sure know what an arrow means.

>>All people are saying is that the ballot was confusing - thus perhaps making the election ILLEGAL. <<

This would make all elections that have ever taken place illegal, since there may be some confusion by someone on some ballot somewhere. It's not correct.

IF THEY REVOTE IN PALM BEACH, THEY SHOULD REVOTE STATEWIDE. There were "confusing" news reports that said that Florida was won by Gore before the polls in the Republican rich Florida panhandle, causing people to leave the poll lines in disappointment.

The ballot was a publicly published "known" entity before the election - and no one complained about the confusion. It's not like the slipped in a new ballot on election day.

If they allowed them to vote again, it would trigger the biggest class-action lawsuit in history. I would fight to let everyone vote again. Why should a few people who couldn't handle the pressure of a voting booth decide who the next leader of our nation should be?
