Privacy folder?? I never knew there was such a thing! Nobody ever showed it to me when they switched to those new optical scanners. I'll have to ask about it next time!

I was a kid in Florida when they abandoned the mechanical voting machines with the curtain and the big red lever, in favor of that notorious punch-card system (you know, the one with the hanging chads...) I still remember the commercials they had explaining how to use them:

"Pick your ballot! Punch your candidate!"

Sometimes I wish I was still able to punch my candidate :-)
