That's not a bad idea, and simple too. I forgot to mention last night AZ had a unique issue on the ballot. Someone wants to set up an election lottery, one voter at random to win a million dollars!! Turn out would increase, but so I guess would fraud. And do we want voters who are looking to make a buck instead of learning about the candidates and issues....

Yeah, if we give people a concrete reward for voting, we may get a lot of random votes for "who the F cares? I just want my free XYZ" that will screw up the actual race.

In honour of my icon choice, though, I want someone to ask Presdient Bush why he doesn't have a big block of cheese in the foyer of the White House!
