electon) as early as Oct 5th if you use an absentee ballot. But I was
wondering... these are being suggested as an alternate to Diebold

That's how it's done in Wisconsin, too. You can have your choices - as
long as they all belong to the same party. It's sort of annoying, as
I'd be more apt to vote for some of the fringe folk. Or hell, in the
races with only one Dem and several Reps, I'd vote for the most
freakish Republican candidate, just to skew results. Oh wait, that's
probably what they're trying to avoid, isn't it? ;)
