From: Dan <brownfam@izzy.net> To: Governor Musgrove Created: 11/16/2000 10:44 AM Subject: Election 2000 or 2001? Message: November 16, 2000 We are writing to our elected officials to let them know how appalled, ashamed, and disgusted we are about this election. We can not believe in this day and age we have people that can*t fill in an election ballot or at least ask for help prior to the election results. It is easy to say now that they didn*t do it right or made a mistake. Is this the only state with problems? Why are the democrats the only ones complaining about problems? Didn*t any republicans vote in Florida or did they have different ballots? If we took a vote I*m sure we could name many more states, counties and people that now feel they had problems. We do not believe that the state of Florida or any of its counties should be allowed to re-vote unless the entire country is allowed the same. Why is it now people are complaining about the Electoral College? If they want the country to vote on the issue fine, but to try to do away with during the election or results of it is ludicrous. We have also heard that some working on the democratic campaign went around to the homeless and gave them cigarettes and absentee ballots to vote. Is this not buying votes? What is our country turning into? We thought when you won a contest, game, election it didn*t matter by how many points or numbers, one is enough, isn*t it? We do believe we need a national ballot so all look the same so nobody can use these excuses in the future. We also feel no numbers should be given out to anyone until everyone in the country has had their opportunity to vote. This way people will not be discouraged and not vote, or think the one they are voting for already has enough to win so why vote. Is Florida the only state with overseas ballots? And if Florida had a recount, why not all the other states that came in close too? Shouldn*t we have all overseas ballots counted too? We can*t believe our vice-president of the United States is putting our country at risk and making us look like idiots. We hope by sending this letter to our elected officials our voice will be heard.
