    For those of you too slow to notice, Charlie Crist is the governor of the state of Florida. He is not, nor has he ever been a Bush. These problems were caused by the Democratic Party of Florida that moved their primary earlier in the season despite the fact that the national party asked for them to be after Super Tuesday. As a punishment the nationalDemocratic Party took away the Florida delegates. There was not a Bush or a Republican of any stripe involved in this mess.

    To answer the question (rather than the other answers) it must be the humidity...

    Don`t you know that frequent exposition to the sun affects your brain? Seriously, it`s true, that is why Puerto Rico has one of the highest ratings on Mental Health patients (just my opinion of course), if you realy think about it what else could it be. Are they under some curse like the Chicago Cubs, for instance? What about that huge pile of bones that the Spanish found all over Key West, the indians said that was a real bad place. Or the fact that the Spaniards where the first to colonice it, you know they say that Spains government was forever cursed in one of their stories, and it seems to carry true for most hispanic nations in the Americas. Not good choices, they are either cracy or cursed.

    Too many "blue hairs" live there. And these people need to know that Jeb Bush is no longer the Governor of Florida, Charlie Crist is now. But I do think that Brother Jeb helped cheat Al Gore out of the election for Brother George by throwing all the hanging chads away that were for Gore. The "blue hairs" didn't have the strength to push them all the way through. Therefore, they got thrown away.

    because florida is such a huge vacation area. Many people live there part time. If you look at the demographics. a big part of south florida is hispanic. a big part of central floida is either from ny, ohio or pennslvania. Just look at the license plates if you drive though florida. Then theres all the coastline for beaches besides the disney and universal. Many people live their only part of the year. Thus the problem

    Dunno...They can't mark 1 spot on a ballot correctly without confusion yet those old geisers can play 8 bingo cards simultaneously with a blotter in each hand with zero errors!

    By the way....To all those who say it's because Bush is the Governor you'd best rethink that....Jed isn't the Gov any more...They pulled this blunder all by themselves and you can't blame Bush for it!

    Tree hugging hippie liberals don't want to follow the rules and because they're elitist, they think everyone else should conform to their wishes. Or they like to make up the rules as the go along and change the rules as needed.

    Because of all the Old Yankees coming down that need stronger glasses and can't read the right side of th ballot.

    Too many retired N.Y.ers (49%), People who don't have a grasp of the English language (41%), retards (10%), and people who have trouble with math (10%).

    Hope this helps.

    You guys need to wake up.

    Bush isn't Governor any longer. Duh!

    And our problem is the old people that can't see the ballot and the damn Hispanic population doesn't speak English!

    because florida uses the easily corruptable dibold voter machines. these are the same machines that said no one in harlem voted for Obama as did no one in eighty california counties and in every new hampshire county that didn't have the paper ballots that Obama one.
