It is not the ballots stupid it is the people using them...feel right at home in the party of Dumbsh*ts?
BTW, those are the same ballots the 2nd and 4th graders correctly filled out.


There were also 1600 voters who voted Bush-Buchanan by mistake. So which party is the party of "Dumbsh*ts"?

I bet the 2nd graders had some hints from their teacher. And they weren't trying to use the ballots in the old machines, some of which were out of alignment.

In 1996, Palm Beach County had 1% overvotes. In 2000, they had 4.2% overvotes. Did everybody get stupider in the intervening four years? Or was there something really wrong with the ballot?
