Election 2012

Pray for Obama!!!

They already found one machine in PA that is changing voted from Obama to Romny

bad voting machine

Yes, I saw that. So sickeningly corrupt. But the whole process is, the poor people waiting in line for 5-6 hours, the Governer closing down early voting in Florida, the whole thing is insane. Let's just hope it's not enough to throw the election.

Looking VERRRRY good right now!

YAY!!!

WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Dems did well in the Senate, too, including Elizabeth Warren in MA, whose campaign I volunteered for.

Initiative 502 passed in Washington! Time to visit Hendrix's grave and have a proper celebration.

Road trip to Washington!!!!!!!!!!!

oh well, maybe my write-in springsteen/seger in '16? we'll get there one day!

My candidate didn't win (Jill Stein) but ROmney didn't either so it's not a bad outcome.

klobuchar in 16'!!!!

Jill Stein is a smart woman. When Romney was running for Governer in 2002, Jill Stein debated against him and a Democrat named Shannon O'Brien, and at the end of the debate, all the commentators said it was really Jill Stein who was most impressive.

Unfortunately, we have a two-party system, and unlike in Europe, parties can't coalition and combine votes, so third-party candidates like Nader or Perot can at best play spoilers who throw elections, but haven't shown capable of winning elections themselves.
