Montana Democrats take over the state House because Republican voters can't follow simple instructions when filling out their ballots.

Mike Meloy, a lawyer for Anita Big Spring, a voter who brought the case to the Supreme Court, said the decision was the right one. "There is no way for anybody to tell from those ballots what the voter intended," Mr. Meloy said. "Those voters violated the instructions given them, which was don't change your ballot and if you make a mistake, ask for a new ballot. Why would you want to give special consideration to someone who didn't follow instructions?"

If all Democrats recognized this, you'd be a more accepting party. Somehow, though, I bet the kind of Democrat who could win in Montana isn't real recognizable to your lot in California.
