Joe,

Since you are the standard of objectivity, I take your rebuke very seriously.

Joe,

re: "The standard on the books prior to the elections was no dimples. They switched to the more liberal one of accepting dimples in some cases. I think they can make a reasonable case that their new standard is fair, but still, it is a new standard."

The only legislative Florida standard that I know of is either the "intent of the voter" or the "clear intent of the voter". All the rest I think is county stuff, made up after the fact. I really think it's up to the locals to decide, per the legislative scheme. And IMHO, the locals are usually more wise and less partisan than the non-locals, they are generally regular folks that sincerely want to be honest and fair. I don't think either side should fear these people, they are closer to the voter than anyone else.

BTW, I think the primary legacy of this election will be that the US Supreme's got involved. It should NEVER have happened. It will have a chilling effect on all future elections.
