| Voters Elect Garlic Bread http://www.click2houston.com/food/3592711/detail.html Voters Elect Garlic Bread POSTED: 1:33 pm EDT July 29, 2004 UPDATED: 9:31 am EDT July 30, 2004 Hundreds of people at last weekend's Gilroy Garlic Festival got some practice using new touch-screen voting machines. Voters cast electronic ballots of their favorite and least favorite garlic dishes. The clear winner? Garlic bread won with 201 votes. Garlic fries took second place with 161 votes and garlic scampi followed in third place with 115 votes. For the second year in a row, garlic ice cream was voted the least favorite food. Voters in Santa Clara County, Calif., will use touch-screen voting machines in the November election.

| Thats a really cute way to test the voting system. I am very happy with the choice because the idea of garlic fries and garlic ice cream isnt very nice at all. GO GARLIC BREAD!! __________________ "Due to budget cutbacks, the light at the end of the tunnel has temporarily been shut down. Sorry for any inconveniences this may cause you." | |||

| oh, yes, garlic ice cream just sounds so yummy. I mean, really, who would eat that? But the idea behind this whole thing was pretty good. It makes it so the voters are comfortable with the machine and they can see if there are any glitches.
