yes, that is fairly obvious, but my point was to highlight the existence of discrepancies rather than their background > The length of the periods were shortened in 2008 [1] when we had the > early election and last year's election was run within 2+2 weeks too. as that e-mail notes, the shortened period was due to the forced re-run and getting back on track quickly rather than making it the norm. personally i dont see what's wrong with running a full month considering the weight of the positions. -mike
