5. 3 precincts had over 25% undervotes; 6 more had over 20%, most had under 10%

Edited on Sun Dec-17-06 03:28 PM by philb

There was something badly wrong in the precincts with over 25% undervotes,
and I don't think it was ballot design
There was at the minimum extreme negligance by officials/poll workers if there was this much problems and
the voters weren't warned/helped.

And over 25% undervotes in a precinct might have been 100% for some machines;
not all the machines in the precinct would have had the same pattern.

But similar for the 6 precincts with over 20% undervotes;
some machines likely had extremely high UVs

There was something very strange going on there
