[EL] AP News : Adolf Hitler stumping for votes in Indian election

[Doug Hess]

Just a fun article from the AP on some unusual naming practices that create
to some odd electoral ballots (odd from other cultures' perspectives).
Would be fun to get some of these ballots.

The issue of names reminded me of a strategy used in St. Louis not too long
ago, and I'm sure elsewhere, where campaigns would run a candidate with the
same name as their opponent in an attempt to confuse voters. Not sure how
that is kosher with election law.
