Flori-Duh again

The Associated Press reports that on Super Tuesday – a week after the Florida primary had been held. – supervisors of election across Florida received “hundreds of phone calls” from out-of-it voters asking where they had to go to vote.


Kathy Adams, a spokeswoman for the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections office said, “We’ve had more than 100 calls at least over the last two days.”


Palm Beach County, please recall, was one of those South Florida counties where after the 2000 general election, an endless number of complaining voters, many of whom were keeping track of 10 bingo cards on Monday night, on Tuesday were too dim-witted to follow voting instructions at the level of complexity of: Punch a hole here.


Another datum about Palm Beach County is that John Francois Kennedy Heinz Fonda Kerry in 2004 carried it by a larger margin than W carried Ohio. Draw your own conclusions.
