Thank You For Voting

Now that I've got all this experience in being a polls judge, I am of course at least as qualified as anyone else to comment about and rule on the status of disputed ballots -- which is why I found this short quiz on the subject, using actual submitted ballots from the Minnesota Senate race, to be of interest. They have images of eleven cast ballots, with the question: who gets the vote?

Incidentally, wise people can disagree - my conclusion was the same as the majority in 9, not in 2. Apparently, there are people who ought not to be trusted with a number 2 pencil and an oval -- though I do like the guy who persistently voted for The Lizard People.
