        There was an explanation that if you wanted to change you had
to poke the wrong X first to deselect it before making the change (I

documented.


        Biggest annoyance I had was that on the review page you had to
use the arrows on the end of the scrollbar rather than just dragging
the knobby up and down (well that and the number of unopposed
incumbents, but that's more a meta problem than a gripe about the
voting machines :).
