23. November, 2000 - Happy Turkey Day. And speaking of turkeys, how about those candidates?

Odd county, Palm Beach has an explanation of the anomalously large number of Buchanan votes. They're just goofballs there.
New recount deadline is Sunday.
Military upset over invalid ballots.
Karl Jones has a page dedicated to Power Politics.
'Condo commandos' caused ballot snafu by handing out palm-cards (cheat sheets) with incorrect information. ''Historically, they [senior citizens] go by the numbers and don't look at the ballot,'' explained Gleason, suggesting that if retirees are instructed to ''punch number two,'' they troop into the voting booth and punch number 2 without even reading the ballot. As I pointed out on the 13th, the Florida Constitution assumes a voter's ability to read and his intelligence to indicate his choice with the degree of care commensurate with the solemnity of the occasion.
The Onion | 15 November 2000 has more stories. It's an excellent paper, and I suggest you check it for more stories when it returns on 29 November (and we might even have a president-elect by then).
All this leads me to think that I'm thankful for the gridlock that'll ensue, no matter which of these turkeys ends up being our president.
