New Florida Ballot Called Confusing
/Palm Beach County has introduced an absentee ballot that
requires voters to indicate their choices by connecting broken arrows,
sparking criticism that it is even more confusing than the infamous
"butterfly ballot" used in the 2000 election. Theresa LePore, the
elections supervisor who approved the 2000 butterfly ballot, opted for
a ballot design for the Aug. 31 primary that asks voters to draw lines
joining two ends of an arrow. LePore said she selected the ballot after
tests showed it was easier for voters. Critics say the new ballot is
not an improvement. [more]
