   Well, this exactly should be the Democrats proposal - but for some resaon it isn't. It would be an easy way to pull wind out of the sails of republicans.

   That is basically useless though. Have it print upfront with a certain amount per district, then hand-fill them out. There is no difference between making a cross and pushing a button, except that the cross is unique. (There's a case w
