‘Real Test’ Begins for George Bush
- Share via
It really irritates and disappoints me to realize that the voters in Western states don’t play a role in the decision on our country’s President. Year after year, television networks promise not to broadcast election results until after the polls close in California.
Once again, the networks breached their promise, allowing our votes only to count as a reinforcement for the remainder of the country. That is not fair. If the networks cannot be controlled, then harsh penalties should be imposed for those broadcasting unofficial results.
Next election let’s have election reform, because the last vote cast in this country is just as important as the first.
