Just in case this is important: A ballot is something which lists things to vote on. A ballot can be blank (no voter preferences) or it can represent the preferences of a voter. In parliamentary terms, a measure is "a statute in draft before it becomes law". A measure might be one of the options on a ballot, but you can other things (for example: you can vote about people). -- Raul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
