so are you saying the democrats wanted to help kerry by taking bush off but may have wound up helping bush? because more people would vote for kerry than the third guy.
I see the problem here.
The arrows were printed one space down.
Look at the bottom arrow - it doesn't point to anything but the header for Congressional races.
A vote for Kerry Edwards is actually a vote for Bush/Cheney.
This is also very bad because it gives the DNC an excuse to sue and review all the ballots - even the ones that miraculously appear in order to steal Michigan.
Except that any of the defective ballots are going to get recounted. So the people who voted for Kerry will get counted for Kerry; those who voted for Bush, well, since they didn't validly mark their ballot that's just too bad.
Well, I would hope that any reasonable effort to draw an arrow for Bush would get counted, but I wouldn't count on it.
