4. I'm sorry, but elections in Costa Rica are much better than in the US...
Sure, there were a few problems this time around, but people are automatically registered to vote here, a non-political electoral court is in charge of elections (unlike Secretaries of State), and voting centers are installed in prisons because voting is a basic human right that cannot be denied to anyone.

I would say it's the other way around... it's sad that this time Costa Rican elections had some similarities to Florida.
