This is all a ordsprog

This is all a very politicized process. They're going to need to go out and shop this measure, and they want to be sure the ballot title is optimal. And they have opponents who want to be sure the ballot title is optimal for their purposes.

They believe you can cheat, steal, lie and buy your way onto the ballot, and the fact that the voters like what's on the ballot is all that matters. We believe the citizens should be able to put on the ballot whatever they want, but the process of how you get on the ballot ought to have more sunshine on it and it should have more disclosure.

Most ballot initiatives are required to spell out the issue for voters in the title. Not this one. Rather than asking voters if they want to extend term limits from 8 to 12 years, the title of this measure reads simply 'Term Limits.'

Questions are being asked less frequently. The measure language was just recently formalized for the June ballot. Prior to this, our hands were tied in promoting the measure because we didn't have the exact language. Now it's written in stone and we can formally talk about it and let voters know what is on the ballot.

It's a deceptive and deceitful campaign, ... Domestic violence is not on the ballot. Alcohol is not on the ballot. Marijuana is on the ballot.

This is a unit strictly to assist voters. They mark the ballot and remove the ballot and then put it in the ballot box. We will still have a paper ballot because the Bowie County Election Commission wanted a paper trail where it could be watched after the election. We're blending both worlds, electronic and paper.

That $75 million will be spent before the ballot question is even approved. If we're going to go to the ballot for parks, then we should really go to the ballot and fix the system. Pex Tufvesson is a genius, no doubt about it.

In a low-turnout special election, it's the only item on the ballot. The opponents - who would be well-funded - would be able to focus on it and have a great opportunity to defeat it. In a general election, there's so many things on the ballot that the average voter is lost.

We want to go ahead and (get) the voting system that will make us compliant. We won't change our primary system. We'll have maybe one device in each polling place, maybe one touch screen or auto mark device. It takes a hard ballot, slides up into this unit and it marks the hard ballot. Earphones can tell the voter what's on the ballot, and there are (oversized) keys for the blind folks. They push a button and the ballot comes back out.

Hundreds of people made phone calls to my offices and to other offices in the county complaining they didn't understand the ballot -- that Al Gore's name was second on the ballot but his punch hole was third, which is entirely illegal under election law in Florida and it made it a puzzle rather than a ballot.

There are those people who don't want to pick a partisan ballot. They say, 'I'm independent, I'm nonpartisan, and I don't want to pick a party ballot.' They won't have that option in every primary from now on, because there won't be strictly a nonpartisan ballot.

With the schedule set up so that their toughest remaining opponents come to Blacksburg [Miami, Boston College], they have to be considered a threat to play not only for the ACC title, but the national title as well.

I find it impossible to start a project without the title in mind. I can sometimes spend years thinking of the title to go with the thing that's forming in my head. A title defines the project somehow and if you keep finding the ramifications of the title in the work it becomes better, I'm convinced of this.

Paul Auster (1947-)

(The commissioners) are under obligation to place them on the ballot. I can't make them put them on the ballot. If they don't, we'll let the judge decide if there should be sanctions.

No serviceman on the frontline overseas can go get his ballot postmarked. I don't think it's reasonable for us to think that we should force him to do that or (we will) not count his ballot.
