Ouch, Chaltab. I suppose I shouldn't gloat and say that my first class is @ 4:30pm.

As to no choice, I guess I could go for a write-in, but there still seem to be some fundamental flaws with the whole process. While I like the idea of the President being separate from the ruling party (we don't have that luxury with the Prime Minister in Canada), the method of registering voters seems scattershot and ripe for fraud. In Canada we have voter lists that are maintained by Revenue Canada; you simply opt in or out of your addressing and citizenship information being used to create a voter list. If you opt out, you have to jump through several hoops in order to be allowed to vote.
