Happy Election Day!

What are you doing reading this? Get out and VOTE!

 

I voted for Mr. Nader...my booth lever had a hanging chad

 

As soon as I get the kids down for a nap I'll mosey on downstairs to vote. Gotta say, it's quite convenient to live right upstairs from a polling place.

 

lucky! Well, it's time for me to heed my own advice. See ya guys later.

 

Haha, that would be confusing!

Happy Voting all you 'mericains!

 

Went this morning, in the rain. LOL. Lots of soggy people out there.

 

I voted today & my 18 yr old teenager.
I hope our votes count.

I think Electoral system sucks, Bush Too!

 

I went several times this morning, and plan on one more after dinner!

C'mon, it's Chicago! "Vote early, Vote often!"

 

I hear the polls are already screwed up down there? Man, you'd think with NASA so close, you guys could get it right!

 

I saw that on The Onion Network, America's Finest News Source!

 

Hah! Made ya look!

Actually, I'm hoping for a tie! That'd be soooo coool!

(reports to corner, replaces Drexel)

 

Oops, sorry, spelled that wrong, I meant to say, I'm hopping for a thigh!

 

I went out to vote, today. Wasn't so hard for me to vote. When I see the ballot sheet I see multiple choice questions. There's no right or wrong answer.....and that's what I really like about it.

I'll wait and see who win the elections, tomorrow. If I picked the right candidates for next 4 years, I gotta cry in joy knowing I got the correct answer.

 

Just don't hop too late into the night. Might disturb the neighbors.

 

Looks like Bush's got it. As long as he hangs onto his lead in Ohio (his 300,000 vote lead), he will have at least exactly 270 votes.

Not to mention the fact that the Republicans already have the majority in the house and are pretty much guarenteed to pull off the same in the Senate

 

I, for one, did NOT see Bush winning Florida. I'm stunned.

 

It's also interesting to see that none of the states for which we have results have flopped to the other party.

 

And perhaps even more interesting is the result of 11 ballot measures banning same sex marriage.

So far, 10 out of 11 have voted in favour of the ban, with the one holdout having the yes vote in the lead.

 

Interesting change in demographics over the years. The "Old South" used to be solidly Democratic.... like for this entire century. It's now solidly Republican.

The black vote used to be monolithically Democratic... Clinton got 98% of the black vote, Gore got something like 93% IIRC, and I heard a comment that this election looks to be only 68% Democratic. Is the Jesse Jackson/Rainbow/Push/Naacp losing their lock on the black vote?

Tom Daschle (minority leader in the Senate) is narrowly losing his election, and no Senate leader from either party has been dumped by their state in something like 50 years.... too much power and pork to give up regardless of any other factors.

The times they are 'a changin'.

 

Well, Ohio just became Florida, and Election night just turned into election week, or maybe month. Democratic bigwigs just got on planes for Ohio and John (trial lawyer) Edwards just announced that they were going to "fight for every vote". Even though the numbers don't add up for the "provisional ballots" to tip the tide.

I'm off to bed.

 

Yep, sleep for a week or two, we may have a decision when we wake up.

 

It's probably fixed!
Bush money, can buy anything!

Too bad for the middle class & poor, with Bush they get less!

I think this whole election melarky is just an excuse for the BBC News presenters to go to the USA for a working holiday

Check the live video . Even the breakfast show is over there! Jeeez!

 

I'm awake! Do we have a president? Nope, not yet.

(well, not officially at least)

 

We'll see if Kerry is a man of honor and will put his country first. Will he concede or draw it out on the hope of stealing it such as Gore tried? I think he won't concede, just as he didn't resign his senate seat. He cares only for himself, not one iota for his country.

If he concedes today, I will reconsider my view of him.

 

From the sounds of Edwards' speech last night, (early this morning,actually) it sounds like they won't lay down without a fight.

 

Someone tell me why California, with it's massive population, can get all the votes counted quicker, even though it's 2 hours behind in the time zones, and Ohio is taking so stinking long? Doesn't make sense to me. The results should all be in, counted, and finalized. This is ridiculous.

 

It is over. The only ones not calling it are CNN, and the other "unbiased" Bush-hating networks.

 

It's not over till Kerry concedes, and Bush accepts, and that hasn't happened because of Ohio. I agree, Bush has won, but the technicalities are slowing down the process once again.

 

Kerry did it. Thank you, Mr. Kerry. And I take back what I previously stated. That was an honorable thing to do.

 

Asus, if "Bush money" can buy anything, Heinz and Soros money should have made Kerry King Of The World. Get a clue friend, it ain't the money.

 

It is too. It is too. Na na.

 

I can't argue with your tight logic and brilliant insights.





Kerry just called Bush to tell him that he'll be making his concession speech at 1:00 PM Eastern Time. Looks like they're not going to fight a futile battle. It's over, except for the rabid reality challenged that will continue to gripe and snipe for the NEXT 4 years.

 

I always considered you a wise person.

 

Well, thank you. A wise man always knows when it's time to throw in the towel.

 

I'm sorry. I meant wise guy.

 

Nah. A "wise guy" would just call in Guido to make an attitude adjustment in the other guy. I'm not Sicilian.

 

I found some for you Eric!

Kellogg's Ties Here

 

Kerry concedes, Ouch, it hurts. :{

Godspeed to President Bush,lets hope he holds true the US Constitution, and represents all of the people his next four years.

 

I had a buddy in the Corps. His last name is Piazzi. We called him Guido. So, watch it.

 

NOW THAT'S A POWER TIE!
