Agree or disagree.

"Laws Govern Ballot Design To Prevent Confusion Obviously because some people can be more easily confused or tricked. The laws governing ballot design were not followed in Palm Beach County and the result was that the ballot confused 5% of those who voted. A party which gets 5% of the national vote is entitled to millions of dollars in public monies, i.e., it is considered a substantial percentage of those who vote. A violation of law has caused harm to 5% of the voters in Palm Beach County and the harm suffered was the harm which the law was intended specifically to avoid."

Subject: Congress repeals presidency for the next four years

WASHINGTON D.C.- With the indecision of the election, in an emergency meeting Congress unanimously voted to go through the next four years without a President. “No one really wanted either candidate” said Utah Senator Orrin Latch “Think of all the money the taxpayers will save the next four years, we won’t have a President to sign all those wasteful programs.”

In a speech on the Senate floor Massachusetts Senator Ted Bennedy commented “You can’t do that.”

“If it works out “ said Senator Orrin Latch “ We might extend it for an additional four years.”
