Computer Problems Already Affecting Florida Voters
TAGmclaren writes "The Sun-Sentinel is reporting on computer glitches already affecting the election in - you guessed it - Florida. Of the 14 early voting sites that opened in Broward County on Monday morning, 9 were reporting problems. In Orlando County, the touch screens crashed. More generally, SFgate.com is keeping track of all voting issues across the country - including lawsuits and other ballot problems." Update: 10/19 03:38 GMT by T : Thanks to reader Dale J. Russell for pointing out that "there is no Orlando County. The city of Orlando, Florida resides in Orange County."
The least YOU could do, troll, is to log in... unless you're afraid of the "-1, Dick" Mod.
Yeah, I thought so.

Status quo== time thus. The incumbent wins when there is not a reason to get out and vote. Look at Florida, where my brother lives and got quad-whalloped by the hurricanes this year. When John Kerry visited Florida, it was a campaign stop. When George W. Bush visited Florida, it was the POTUS on an emergency declaration visit.
I just bought a paper yesterday that accuses both sides of fraud - Republican-hired ballot collection agencies throwing out Democratic absentee/voter registration forms, etc.
I think the worst thing that could happen to this country is to elect Pr. GW Bush or Sen. Kerry as POTUS. That'll be just like the 'official' end of the War Between the States; the shooting may have stopped but the feudin' sure ain't. Southern men are gentlemen, and gentlemen do not surrender to no one.
If I am elected President, I will be the peacemaker between all sides on all issues. And I will carry a replica Colt Peacemaker at my side as a symbol of that duty and privilege. Speak softly and carry a big stick, which I do and have and my former wife will attest to.
