...course, true international action on climate change will require strong support at home - and it's not clear that exists yet. (Bush gets the blame for ditching Kyoto, but don't forget that the Senate in 1997 voted 95-0 that the U.S. shouldn't sign onto the protocol in its finished form, and President Bill Clinton never brought the treaty to Congress.)

...plans to set up extra tables with privacy screens if the booths reach capacity. "I even ordered extra clipboards," says Krisel. "If we get really jammed, we'll stick ballots on clipboards and start handing those out." So for anyone looking to predict the outcome in Ohio this year, forget exit polls and anecdotal reports--but pay attention to whether those clipboards come out in Hamilton...
