A message for the Dems

I probably should have posted this here:

The electoral process is stacked against you. Studies show that, in 2000, more voters set out to vote for Gore than for Bush. What turned the tide was voter confusion, intimidation, culling of names from the rolls and seriously conflicted officials who ended the contest prematurely in favor of Bush.

I posted the article in full with the author's permission. We used to work for the same newspaper (not this one).
