I understand concerns about voting in diffrent language, usually by google translator, which is hardly a reliable tool (I've been checking it with Polish and Arabic and it was far from accurate). I know some trolls like to bump their ego by pretending they're a great polyglots, but there frequently butchered auto-translations are hard for those who are counting votes.

I don't understand, however, what is the problem with traditional, harmless write-ins? Don't tell me you can't identify them.

Remember "Cranky Blue Clarence"?

Everybody knew it was a joke write-in, especially since Napoleon preferenced Clarence later without "WI". What's the fuss?

     There were ballots in recent elections that I was unable to translate. The record shows as much. I guess my translation skills are not as good as yours are.

Look, I'm not trying to be an ass to you. All I'm saying is:

Good tool, but google still fails at more complex translations.
