I noticed something similar when I voted in the primary this year. I
voted in the Republican primary, and there were *two* choices for
president: Bush and "Undecided" (or maybe it was "Uncommitted").
Anyway, my question: can you decline to vote on an office-by-office
basis, or is it all or nothing?
