Try this one on for size


In 2000, a man lives in Florida and receives one ballot on voting day. He only votes for Gore on this ballot. However, when he submits his ballot, he ends up voting for both Bush and Gore. There was only one ballot submitted, there were no hanging chad errors, he only voted for president and there were no write-ins of any sort. How is this possible?

No, this isn't Lord of the Rings


His vote indicates an implicit agreement with the corrupt electoral college system, thereby constituting a "vote" for whoever is declared winner, in this case George W. Bush.


No, this isn't the sage garden

Don't give up. You guys need to think laterally.

Oh man, some of you guys are so close. Here's another hint - you have to look inside the box by looking outside the box

You guys are close but close doesn't cut it.

Here is another hint... you have to turn this riddle on its head - literally.

Somebody in this topic was really close to answering correctly... until they went off the deep end that is. (That's a hint btw)
