Cracked.com, a ten-year-old comedy blog with a large readership, has this article about some deficiencies in U.S. election laws. The article includes ballot access laws, and specifically attacks Georgia. The article also illustrates bad examples of gerrymandering.

The information about Georgia is mostly accurate, but not entirely. Everything the article says about U.S. House ballot access is accurate. But the statewide petitions are about 50,000 signatures, not 250,000. Thanks to Andy Craig for the link.
