Strickland numbers because I had those readily available from the SoS website (and they were easy to stick in a spreadsheet), while I didn't have readily available registration numbers broken down by party. I figured it a reasonable assumption to think that the D/R registration breakdown would track the Strickland/Blackwell voting breakdown fairly well. I should add, I used Blackwell v.

Grr. The overall point... the Ohio GOP and right-wing blogosphere are a bunch of crying babies who would only be happy if the program targetted Mercer, warren, Holmes, Clermont, and Hancock counties. One of those (Holmes) would make the list for the next three counties to be added to the program, if it were up to me (along with Ross and Huron counties). I had all kinds of explanation and reasoning, but it's gone now, and I've got other crap to do, so I can't be bothered to rewrite it. I just wrote a GREAT comment, and my browser somehow lost it.

Just trying to be somewhat edumacational. I wonder if that word would be in the dictionary of a privatized library? Brian, I did like the non-niggles part of your post. Really.
