.. and millions of Kleenex.
Read it and weep, lads. Just wanted to be the first to console you. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

"George W. Bush would have won a hand recount of all disputed ballots in Florida's presidential election if the most widely accepted standard for judging votes had been applied, the first comprehensive examination of the ballots shows. However, the review of 171,908 ballots also reveals that voting mistakes by thousands of Democratic voters — errors that LEGALLY disqualified their ballots — probably cost former vice president Al Gore 15,000 to 25,000 votes. That's enough to have decisively won Florida and the White House.Gore's best chance to win was lost before the ballots were counted, the study shows. Voters' confusion with ballot instruction and design and voting machines appears to have changed the course of U.S. history."
Hmm, maybe there's going to have to be a bit more to "motor-voter". Like "how to read the instructions". And that's not a joke; I'm serious.

We're talking about Democrats here Toad. Looking at their demographics, I'm not sure they all can read.

ah, come on, they JUST made a mistake.
Let's give them another chance to vote.
I'm sure they'll get it right this time (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
I just wonder if this is the last recount, of the recount, of the recount, of the recount,of the .......

What about the chads? And why the Fuc* do they keep getting dimpled?

Laugh while you can. Do you think the same mistakes will happen in '04? Florida was a wake-up call for the Dems. If the Reps had sense they would look for someone to represent their party that atleast has a chance at getting elected. If they stay with Dubya the Dems will retake the presidency easly IMO.

I would hope we can avoid the same mistakes.
Saw where the Fla. legislature voted to spend big bucks to upgrade the system.

"The state will provide counties with $32 million to buy the new equipment and beef up voter education and training of poll workers.
The bill also requires a uniform ballot design statewide and extends the date by which counties must certify their election results by four days."
Now to get everywhere else on the upgrade trail.

Ooh those evil democrats!
Chi-coms, every one of them!
I say we start a cleansing civil war to rid the US of this...this...plague!
Note: I'll sell weapons to both parts. Well, that'd be the democractic part, since the republicans already got Stormtrooper gear.

NO NO that would not be the democratic party remember, they arent gonna pay up. They are poor. There needs to be a cap to keep the rebublicans from having more money than they can spend.
Oh and remember all those crazy dems arent gonna come near using a weopon. Of course there the ones who wouldnt give arip if we had no military.
Heck they even sell military and nuclear missle secrets(that could be used against any country) to those mean 'ole chinese. Of course they have a reason, "THE MILITARY FIELD IN THE WORLD NEEDS TO BE MORE EVEN."

You don't want to get anyone started on the demographics of Republicans, do you Funked? If we use the blatant stereotype model that you have demonstrated here, I think it would likely be more incriminating than the Democrat demographics...
especially when you consider that in a city, you very nearly need to read in order to survive.
