CHADS: According to county spokesman Bob Nichols, there are five types of chad.

Ones that count:
• Hanging door -- one corner hanging off
• Swinging door -- two corners hanging off
• Tri-chad -- three corners hanging off

Chads that don't count:
• Pregnant -- bulges, but not punched through
• Dimple -- simple indentation

freeus,

A "chad" is the portion of the punch ballot that is actually punched out.
