Meaning of swinging-door chad | Babel Free

Definitions

chad with two corners detached

Examples

“In brief: a "pregnant" or "dimpled chad" was one bearing an indentation left by the voter but which had not become⟳ detached at any of its corners. Those would not be counted as votes. Other chads with one corner, two corners or three corners detached - "hanging door", "swinging door" and "tri-corner" chads respectively - would be counted.”

“My discovery of the chad in all its permutations — the dimpled chad, the hanging chad, the penciled chad, the pregnant chad, the swinging-door chad, the tri-chad, the incomplete detached chad, the trapdoor chad, the nondetached chad - opened up a whole new world.”
