What does Hangong Chad means?

What type of ballot was used in Florida during the 2000 presidential election that led to hanging chads?

The ballots that produced the handing chads were paper tabulating machine cards, commonly called IBM cards or computer cards. The voter was supposed to punch out a perforated tab or chad to make his vote. The chad was supposed to be completely removed to create a clean hole in the card, but some people punched the card, but left the chad hanging. These hanging chads interfered with the machine used to read and tabulate the vote cards.

Why is the hanging chad important?

A hanging chad means that the voter's intention is unclear. When the voter's intentions are unclear, the results of the election are always in doubt. It takes away from the authority of the "winner" and it creates resentment and distrust among those who voted for the "loser." In the American election in 2000, the number of hanging chads on the Florida ballots was enough to change the results of the election, so they started a recount. When the Supreme Court voted 5 to 4 to stop the recount, it meant that the President of the United States was in effect chosen by 9 people. Millions of Americans were deprived of a vote. In a recent election at my school, we had 23 votes (15 for, 7 against, and 1 "hanging chad" situation where we didn't know what that person meant). The 15 would have been a 2/3 majority if we hadn't counted the unclear vote in the total. Now everybody's mad and won't work together.
