LOL! I like the black ink on the thumb thing. We should do that here--absentee ballots would have a place to ink your thumb, vote doesn't count without it....then no double voting by also going to the polls.

CAIRO, Egypt (AP) Web site statement purportedly from insurgency leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's group has claimed responsibility for election-day attacks in Iraq.

I'm sure this will make him very popular with all of those Iraqis voting today.

Or maybe have voters put a quick thumb print on the ballot prior to submitting it. Kinda like the bank does sometimes on your checks. ACLU would soil their croth to their shoes over that one!

The ACLU would sue claiming it was intimidating voters.
