One        gets pasted in the book, which is facing the voter and which he signs.        One goes....hmmm, I forget... and the third goes to the voter. The        voter gives it to the poll worker who takes him to the machine and        resets it.              As I remember, the label has the page and position of where your label        got pasted in the book.       --- SBBSecho 2.12-Win32        * Origin: Time Warp of the Future BBS - Home of League 10 (1:14/400)    |
