Sample Ballots

Yay! My sample ballot came in the mail! What? There's more on it than just the office of the president? Well, lets see what else there is...

From the Florida ballot:

Proposing amendments to the State Constitution to require the sponsor of a constitutional amendment proposed by citizen initiative to file the initiative petition with the Secretary of State by February 1 of the year of a general election in order to have the measure submitted to the electors for approval or rejection at the following November's general election, and to require the Florida Supreme Court to render an advisory opinion addressing the validity of an initiative petition by April 1 of the year in which the amendment is to be submitted to the electors.

After reading it once, I had to read it out loud, but ran out of breath. Get the proposer some punctuation!

We also have eight individuals listed as choices for Office of the President. Does this vary from state to state? I wasn't expecting so many this time around.
