Oh! Oh! Forgot one other voting reform I'd do if I were in charge...

Voting would be for one 24-hour block, period. No more 'East coast finished up before West coast' crap and 'early returns'. All polls open at the same moment, and all polls close at the same moment. Nobody gets to use 'well so-and-so was already going to win' as an excuse to not vote.

I couldn't agree more

I've often thought this was a cheap way out for those on the West coast. Shoot, NM (I think that was one of the close ones) may have had a wider race in 2000 if they didn't know what the hell was going on out here in the %&^%%$%$ up East coast :)
