Very helpful and enlightening. I was a little puzzled as to how the Australian ballot was harmful to voting rights, but the author’s first Further Reading entry, “The Multifarious Australian Ballot,” filled me in. Interesting how many ways there are to design a ballot, and how sneaky some of them can be.
Somehow I was not surprised to find that, even then (1910), Florida was the bad boy of ballot design.
