Got your little sticker? :cool:

:heart:



(I'll bet this place exhibits a way-higher than normal good citizenship-quotient, actually. Aargh.)


I do have my little sticker! I love the way they call out your name after you've voted. Tradition. Sometimes it's a good thing.
 
Flipping between CNN.com and catching up on Vana's threads.

Amazing how a Political Science major could spend most of Election day not thinking about the election. :eek: :eek:

I've never heard of that before.
:confused:

Maybe it's just my state?

Possibly.....But our voting system was a test run (and with the wait times, probably crash) this year. :rolleyes: They didn't have everyone's names in order to call them out even if they wanted to.

*knocking on wood*
I'm liking those US Congress results so far though.

The House looks good... I'm a bit worried about the Senate.

I've given up on the Senate. Missouri and Tennesse are pretty much set races. It's the amount of turn over showing already, in both, that's making me happy. The House has me squealing though. :D

Just found out that my state passed a ban on same-sex marriages, or "a marriage between a man and a woman is the only legally valid domestic union in Idaho."

Bastards.

This is one of those times I really wish life could be like that Adam Sandler movie. If only I could have a remote control, so I could fast forward to when you told us they were both out of the woods.... :rose:

That's what I'm holding my breath on here.
We had a State Constitutional Amendment that marriage is between a man and a woman.
Then we also had a Referrendum legalizing same sex unions for all the same rights as marriage.

:confused:
:rolleyes:
Unfortunetly, both of those appear to be sliding the opposite of what I want. :( Denver county isn't reporting anything yet, but Boulder wasn't the landslide of support I was expecting, either. Helpful, but not as much as I wanted.

"But the strongest of all the arguments against the interference of the public with purely personal conduct, is that when it does interfere, the odds are that it interferes wrongly, and in the wrong place."

John Stuart Mill wrote these words in 1869. They are just as true now as they were then.

*sigh*

I also am very pleased with the result in the House, and there will be a net gain in the Senate...Although it may not be enough to win outright control. Regardless, the days of the Congress acting as a rubber stamp for the Bush administration are over. A woman will be Speaker of the House! This is a historic night, and if the leverage gained tonight is used correctly...not to wound or in the seeking of revenge, but in healing and building...then this country will see great benefit from tonight's results.

Since Pelosi's first words were about cleaning out the "swamp" that existed, somehow I doubt there will be much in the way of cooperation and an effort to build anything. I've never liked her, from the second she was nominated. There was an African-American candidate (I can't remember his name) that I thought would have been a much better choice. Oh well, I will try to keep an open mind and see what happens. Maybe she'll surprise me (hopefully they all will). I'm a fan of seeing people put up or shut up, so I hope they do win the Senate (although it's not looking great). The Republicans got control and stunk up the joint (IMHO). Let's see if the Dems can do better...
 
They're hesitant to call VA, but with 84% in, we might have MO??? MT is looking promising........Could we really have Congress? :eek:

Can you imagine how different it would have been with more Rep Senate seats up for graps?

Is it me, or did Bush not do nearly as much campagning for his party?

It's ok to stay up and get loopy with sleep dep and adrenaline on Election night, isn't it?

Shutting up now and going back to my corner.
