OK, if we look at all the current subscribers who voted in the 2000
election, I bet it's going to be less than 100. And of all those, I bet
that not everyone who voted for a presidential candidate chose either
Bush or Gore. So your breakdown has a little problem -- maybe it should
be more like 25/70/5 Bush/Gore/Other.
I mean, *I* wasn't particularly happy with either major party candidate,
and I cast a vote for a third party candidate. Without my having said
that, who would you have pegged me for voting for? And my having said
that, who do you think I voted for?
And am I the only one?

wondering just where someone would peg her in the "kook" continuum,
politically speaking :)
