Ohio Finds Possible Double Votes, CountsWe can send men to the moon and squeeze 10,000 songs into an iPod but when it comes to elections we just stack our ballots on the floor and hope for the best. Sorry, but I need a better answer than "totally hectic."
Election officials in one Ohio county found that about 2,600 ballots were double-counted, and two other counties have discovered possible cases of people voting twice in the presidential election. (Elections director Barb) Tuckerman believes the votes were counted twice when they were mistakenly placed alongside a pile of uncounted ballots. The room where the ballots were being fed into optical-scan machines on election night was so crowded that ballots had to be placed on the floor, Tuckerman said.
"It was totally hectic," she said. (source: AP)
