i think we have to stick with condi/colin, it's more symmetric, and it's a mercy to the hillary/biden/barach/bayh ticket, they're the non-incumbe ...[text shortened]... ance they can get ... life won't be as much fun when their party goes the way of the Whigs ...
Ok. Just say so. You have "delusions of grandeur".

What are you expecting? A thousand votes?

Surprise!

You may get ten.

Yea. Much easier and more concise to just "keep score" by each voter.

To illustrate the point... "I vote for Newt and Condi". Ok?

yeah but that way at the end someone's got to go thru all the posts and tally the votes ... this way we don't need an end, and by 2008 we could have upwards of 200,000 RHP votes collected ... plus we know at any time what the current total is ...

zeeble, both SVW and FU should be purged from the voting roles for RHP felony violations. Why are we allowing these people a vote?

This table looks like it's been constructed by a Floridian, are you really going to trust us not to screw up the totals?

Far too right-wing for my tastes, and I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more, but she was still by far the bravest person in Clinton's first administration.

Oh my god it's florida all over again!

zeeble put c/c in the first slot. Am clearly meant to vote for h/b, but because of the biased system Am's vote goes for c/c.

It should read as follows:

001 001 000 c/c zeeblebot
002 001 001 h/b telerion
002 001 001 void Ragnorak
003 001 002 h/b moldy crow
004 001 002 c/c flyUnity (purged from rolls due to RHP felony)
005 001 003 h/b bbar
006 001 003 c/c StarValleyWy (purged from rolls due to RHP felony)
007 001 004 h/b Amaurote

SVW is right. Why put the relative accumulated scores?

c/c zeeblebot
h/b telerion
void Ragnorak
h/b moldy crow
c/c flyUnity (purged from rolls due to RHP felony)
h/b bbar
c/c StarValleyWy (purged from rolls due to RHP felony)
h/b Amaurote

Totals:
c/c - 3
h/b- 4

if we start purging for RHP felonies, there aren't going to be any votes in the table ...

007 003 004 h/b Amaurote

(i don't see any non-felonious voters yet, here is a table just for them: 000 000 000.)

(we need a running tally to prevent the h/b3 side from clearing out the middle column.)

(i agree, Amaurote probably meant to go h/b3 and was confused by the ballot. following Florida Supreme Court precedents we should guess what he meant and swap his tally, especially if swapping his tally means a vote for h/b3.)

I want to submit a write in vote for Howard Dean. I want a Democrat that doesn't mince words when it comes to Republican scum.

But if that's not allowed, then I'll vote for Hillary/Biden.

Tabular format is not my friend, look to the hanging chad.
