I forget what someone else called it here, but the short short version 
is that when Rating a candidate on the ballot, you can represent your 
uncertainty about the candidate by placing a lower and higher rating. 
So, on a scale of 0 to 10, I'm pretty unsure about Ralph Nader though 
he seems pretty good, so I'll give him a [4,8].
