Interesting story on NPR this morning about a study finding that the candidate listed first on the ballot gets 2% more votes. Because of this, some states (such as Ohio) rotate the ballot position between precincts so that each candidate has the first position before an equal number of voters.
Given the number of close races across the country, the rotation of candidate names makes a lot of sense. Mark Ritchie . . . are you out there?
