FWIW, I'm not blaiming ballot confusion on anyone "Jewish, old, or female."
Rather I find it
ironic that this election is so close that the outcome
could be determined by a very small group, be it
Grandma's Bingo club, the employees of Omega Research,
or anyone else.
Also ironic to me is that we are taking flack from the English who followed
us grudgingly into democracy after centuries as a monarchy.
