I think the difference is that there are so many various volunteers from the community that are represented by each party (even 3rd parties), so no one thinks any funny business is going on in counting the votes. Let's look at the 1996 presidential election, for example. Going into his ... Oh and yeah!! My clip was featured in Clipiversity today. Thanks for letting me know that, ericskiff! |
