An additional ballot illegality:
Florida law is clear about the order of candidates on the ballot.
The party of the governor is at the top.
The next major party is below that.
Minor parties are to follow the major parties (each party in order of the number of votes received in the previous election for governor).

On the Palm Beach County ballot, the top punch hole was for Republicans (Bush-Cheney). The second punch hole was for the Reform Party (Buchanan-Foster). The third hole down was for Democrats (Gore-Lieberman). Democrats are required to have the second hole--the one for Buchanan and the (stolen) Reform party.

Combine that with the confusing design of the "butterfly ballot" and you have a recipe for disaster.

How stupid do you have to be? As stupid as George W. "Social Security isn't a Federal program" Bush.
