You don't know Republicans. They'll lie and say that pencil lines don't exist. Just look at what they did in FLA to the poor voters who punched holes in cards. They lied and said punching a hole was not sufficient unless they also removed the piece that was still connected. They also lied and would claim more than one hole was punched when it wasn't. The rarely any difficulty thing won't work with the stupid people in this country.
