    Did you not watch the mess in 2000? The *counties* decided how their ballot
    would be constructed and how the elections would be run. Now how is Jeb
    Bush and/or his Commissioner going to influence *Democratic* counties run by
    *Democrats*?

    Simple answer is, he *isn't*.

    Except that state law *explicitly* places that responsibility in the hands
    of the county election board for *that very reason*.
