NJ absentee ballots confusing

[shirlden]

My son, lives in Jersey City and will be gone on election day so Friday he picked up an absentee ballot, took it home, and filed it out. He said it took about a half an hour to figure it out and then when double checking he found that he had voted for the Green Party candidate. (He is a college grad and normally quite smart.)
So, he had to take it back and get another ballot.
He says to let everyone know they should check this ballot very carefully.

1. People who try to vote for Kerry wind up checking the

Green Party instead?

2. That's what he just told me

on the phone.
