    In a recent by-election I voted in, the ballots were 2-3 feet long with 91 candidates on them. This was in Canada, where we only have paper ballots. The majority of the candidates only registered as part of a protest to get the govt. to reconsider other voting methods than FPTP.

      Woah! And I thought we had it bad here. There has to be a way to set some kind of reasonable barrier for entry
