A vote for competence

Re 'Virginia elections force a descent into madness,' (op-ed columnist Roger Chesley, May 3):

Chesley should live in Florida. Then he would be thankful if elections were held every year. I just got back from spending the winter in the land of hanging chads, unreliable touch-screen voting machines and Democratic delegates who were elected so early that they don't count. Perhaps if Florida had an election every year, they would figure out how to do it properly.
