Weird Contested Ballots:
You Be The Judge
They still have one heck of a tight race for a US Senate seat over in Minnesota. It’s starting to look like the democratic challenger and former Saturday Night Live star Al Franken has fallen behind incumbent republican Norm Coleman in the recount for this hotly contested and expensive race. But what’s really interesting about this recount are the “challenged” ballots – the easily debatable ballots that people messed up in some way or another and are now confusing election officials. Extra dots, crossed out lines, drawn in arrows, a write in of “lizard people” – basically anything that someone could do to screw up a ballot … someone did. I found this link to a Minnesota Public Radio blog very interesting, it gives you the opportunity to look at the actual contested ballots, see how people screwed up, and then judge for yourself. You vote then see how others voted. Democracy is tedious business.
