Not only seniors but 1st time voters too. I heard on NPR (National 
Public Radio in the US) an interview with a young woman voting for 
the 1st time realized her mistake, asked the poll worker if she did 
indeed cast a vote for Buchannon instead of Gore, was told "yes" and 
when she requested (as is her right!) a new ballot, was told NO and 
had the ballot physically removed from her hand and placed in the 
ballot box!!! If this had been me I would pitched a fit so large and 
loud that the entire country would have heard me!
