As a working journalist writing about politics, I get lots of feedback from voters. Many are, sadly, clueless. But it is a stretch to assert, as you blithely do, that every voter knew that the guy was dead. My own experience shows otherwise. -Declan At 09:55 11/10/2000 -0800, Ernest Hua wrote:
To believe your assertions, you would have to assume that the voter walked into the booth never picking up on any news and never spoke to anyone, and just had no clue who he/she was voting for. This behavior is clearly legal. But just as Tim cannot be concerned about inner city welfare mothers ("maggots"? what word did he use?), I simply cannot be concerned about this uninformed segment of the electorate.
