Honolulu, HI -
Add Florida Chads to the growing list of products available to purchase on the worldwide web. The infamous Florida Chads, the small punched out portion of a punch-style voting ballot are now available by logging onto www.forchads.com.
The dimpled, pregnant, hanging, swinging-door and tri-chads became synonymous with Election 2000 and the topic of nightly talk shows. Website Manager Rick Davison said that sales have been strong if not overwhelming at times. The small collector quality bags of chads quickly became a favorite Christmas and keepsake gift. "We're mailing the chads worldwide and expect sales to remain strong beyond Christmas" Davison said. The site offers the small bags of chads for $7.95 each with a discount for multiple orders. Ordering is a simple process. Major credit cards, as well as money orders are accepted.
The small chad is often removed from voting machines and discarded before and after an election process takes place.
