"Florida" didn't spend the money, the candidate's supporters did.  It doesn't bother me: let the voters choose, and who are we to tell the voters of Florida who they can vote for or not vote for?

My concern remains - what keeps someone from going poll-to-poll and "registering" several times?  I know my polling places don't have a computer link-up to a central database.  Heck - they barely got the touch-screens working.\n\nThis might not be happening right now, but can we guarantee it won't happen?\n\nBut my family is from Louisiana - if you want election fraud, we can give you a Doctoral Dissertation on the subject.

Just wait 'till my state,  (Florida) returns it's votes.\nHoly shmite, I can hear the sanity-piercing screams already.' Those three-inch high letters were to hard to read'.\n\nTouching big, block letters is tough to do.

Absolutely!\nEvery vote counts. \nEven if your candidate doesn't win, their opponent looks at how close the election results were, and some of them actually try to respond to their constituency if it was a close race. Plus there are usually other things to vote on, like propositions, and bond & tax issues that will affect your wallet.

There was actually an issue with electronic voting machines in Florida again this year.\n\nSometimes mistakes happen.  Sometimes people try to cheat the system.  Sometimes people other than democrats have made errors or cheat, too.\n\nI think that you're painting with a very broad brush, as the saying goes.  I think it is unfair to pose a question or make a statement that says only democrats will cheat, whine, or mess up.  When dealing with so, so many people as ALL of the political parties are, the chances for there being "bad apples" in the bunch is always there.  \n\nAnd for the record, I am not a democrat, repulican, or otherwise.  I'm of the "non-voting" type currently and don't support any specific party.

It doesn't matter Nina. If the law passes, the same thing will happen there that happens in California. When the people pass a controversial law like that here, this is what happens. A judge will claim the new law is unconstitutional. Thus voiding all our votes and making the new law void. In other words. It'll never happen. That's why I quit voting.

I don't think that it should be a Gov't choice...It should be the owner of the property choice....I have yet to be somewhere where smoke bothered me because most places are non smoking...bars here in Ohio aren't most anyway...and that doesn't bother me at all...maybe the next day after smelling my clothes and hair but my breath probably stinks just as bad after a night of drinks.  This is just a way of people controlling and getting money...one of the issues on the ballot if you read closely says money for the "clean air fund"...if they band smoking why would you need a clean air fund...and what on earth are you going to do with that money?  I prefer my money to go to my child's college fund...but If this passes I won't have a choice will I?

Don't know about the Seinfeld thing but it just got reported on CNN that she is going up of felony voter fraud charges in palm springs.\n\nhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/11/01/coulter.voting.ap/index.html

That is definitely a worthy cause.   If you're going all the way to Florida, you might want to take two with you.   Think about it...you may draw media attention.

I agree with you completely.  Once the new representative is sworn in, they are your representative whether you voted for them or not.  Yesterday, some of my candidates won, some lost.  I did not vote for my governor, who it turns out will still be my governer, but she is my governor.  I am just going to hold her feet to the fire and make sure she represents me.

I'm afraid I don't know where you can find a side by side comparison for Florida. I'm in a different state and we can get that kind of comparison online at our local newspaper website. So you might check some of your newspaper websites. The following is a great non-partisan website with information on every state candidate.

I doubt it'll affect things much for the hard-line people.  The waffles in the middle...I don't know.  A lot of people really don't like Gates and most people don't know who Welch is.  So, their "charisma" won't have much effect.  I haven't really been following the campaign finance reform recently, but I'm guessing their financial contributions won't make that much of a difference either.\n\nIf you're suggesting that Gates is going to get someone to code up some program to skew the election results, there are better conspiracy theories that are more interesting floating around these days.\n\nEdit: I stopped following your train of thought after you made claims such as Welsh owning half of MSFT.  \n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqlqQoulrFM_sC_doXwDU8nsy6IX?qid=1006042633264\n\nYou have sources for that?  Does MSFT even write the software that counts election results?  Sources for that?  Most of your train of thought is just based on random suppositions that ring about as true as the Da Vinci code.  Might fool a few people but if you ask for real proof, it's just a nice story.\n\nThat said, I understand your position and the use of the Internet to pass on thoughts to help your cause, so I'll leave you to that.
