You had to remember to color in the oval next to the write-in line so the ballot would kick out of the counting machine for manual tabulation. Then the frickin LINE was very small, and you had to try to make the name legible. All I know is that I cast write-in votes for a SOS-certified Presidential ticket in five elections and they were only counted in two. It's possible that it might actually be easier to cast a write-in vote on the e-slate that would actually be COUNTED, but we'll see. Er, not that I'd cast a write-in vote for any of the Seven Dwarves, of course!<BR/><BR/>Ding-dong the witch is dead--dibs on his ruby slippers!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
