For your amusement, valuable science knowledge for the day: Box jellyfish, or cubozoans, are bizarre, highly poisonous predators (New Scientist, 8 November 2003, p 34). "These are fantastic creatures with 24 eyes, four parallel brains and 60 arseholes," says Dan Nilsson, a vision expert from the University of Lund in Sweden. from here: newscientist.com

So? If the areas were already strong for Kerry, it was probably easy to sign up legitimate voters, people like to be on a winning side. In areas where it is more 50-50, then most of the ones who will vote a particular way are already registered and probably will vote. In areas where a candidate is weak, it is hard to find people who are willing to register for a candidate widely viewed as a loser. In areas where Kerry was weak Bush was strong. The Republicans were trying as hard to register legitimate voters as the Democrats but the last minute surge in Wisconsin was almost entirely in the areas where Kerry was strong. Tim
