Duval County (Jacksonville) is heavily Republican, and they threw out over 25,000 presidential ballots for being either doubled-punched or not-at-all punched..... Jimbo.

I live in Los Altos and we used CRAPPY voting machines..... didnt even have the candidates name next to the hole. You punch a number that correspond to the one you choose in the "sample" book all of us where sent in CA. The Palm Beach ballot was better than what we used...... Save your bleeding heart for Garvin and Chris. I never knew it was because we had good PR that we bomb'd the crap out of everyone ! Now if only they had "Be There"...........HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAaaa btw....I didnt even know we talked to each other...????

<< The people who are really suffering disenfranchisment are those with crappy voting machines and they happen to be in Democratic counties. >> I live down here in South Florida, and have voted in every election, since I was able to vote. I am really pissed off that I cannot rely upon the government to insure that my ballot is counted. So...... from now on, until they get the problem fixed, I intend to vote by absentee ballot. Perhaps if hundreds of thousands of voters vote by absentee ballot, it will force our high paid election officials to get off their butts and do something productive!
