    An election should be so clear, transparant and obvious that the law should not be a part of it...

    Yes, we've had some issues with that lately. In this case, it was not
    clear if the 11 votes were invalid because they were illegally cast or just because they were not properly cast by an otherwise legit voter. The
    article didn't say.
