Frankly, if you can't correctly fill out this ballot, where the arrows
clearly point to the correct holes to punch and the numbers by the candidate
names correspond to the numbers by the holes, you probably shouldn't be
allowed to vote.
Of course I predicate this on my personal belief that citizens should take
an IQ test before being allowed to participate in important activities like
voting or getting a drivers license. <g>
Obligatory TW tie-in: how much additional effort should we expend after
providing clear directions that could be followed by someone of average
intelligence? Write very slowly and in large letters so the audience can
follow along. <g> Step-by-step directions in baby-talk, anyone? <vbg>
