In Lacerte, how to do TWO customized elections?

@George4TacksI know you would know this....

Lacerte Screen 46 Election .  On the bottom, it allows input for a "customized election" (i.e. election not preset in Lacerte) . 

A client has to make more than one such election.  Tried but too brain fried to find how (or if possible) to expand the fields (a set of two boxes, one for title,  the other for text) for multiple elections.   Please help.  Ctrl-E didn't work.

Or is it limited to only one?

Sure! Sure! Sure!

I think you had on your pirate patch. 

FYI - This works for any of the elections and there are similar weird Add boxes in other parts of this not so INTUITive program.

You made it so easy. 

I haven't had to make multiple elections for a long time.  Just added supplemental notes two days ago, and I DID check out the bottom left corner. 

You made it so easy...  Just like this:

It is along the hippopotamus!

One of my few math jokes. Probably not politically correct anymore, but had to do with an indigenous persons group whos chief just died. They select their new chief based on an age old tradition use a balance beam. Each of the two front runners could lay out an animal hide on each balance beam and then put their wife or wives on the animal hides. The one that weighed the most won.

The first laid out two deer hides and put each of this two lovely curvaceous wives on the two hides. The next laid out a hippopotamus hide and put his rather large overweight aged wife on that hide. Well, the scale wobbled and it bobbled and it creaked and it moaned and then finally balanced out exactly even. 

The two leaders were then to share control of the group until one of them died. 

And the moral of the story is ......

never heard this one before.  Something to do with the square root of the hippopotamus?

The squaw of the hippopotamus equals the sum of the squaws of the other two hides.

Someday I will tell you about the forlorn pair of snakes in Yosemite Valley.
