I won’t be blogging the election today; too many other duties to attend to, including voting, chauffeuring my aunt to a couple of places and attending an Election Bash at a certain Bear Flagger’s humble abode later on.
However, other bloggers will take on that Herculean task, including:
If you’re going to blog the election, post your intent in the comments or send me email and I will update the post as needed.
You can post your musings and observations here as well. Happy Thank-God-It’s Finally-Here Day!
UPDATE: Civic duty for President Bush's popular vote tally done about a half an hour ago (10:45 PST). The check in and check of the rolls went smoothly. No eye-rolling at the Republican. There were no lines, but each booth (seven) was full. Within less than a minute, however, I was standing at one of the booths. By the way, the punch indicator has been forsaken for the inked indicator. No more hanging chads.
But of course the procedure just couldn’t simply happen without a little drama.
The young woman in the booth next to mine was chattering on a cell phone. In a short while it became apparent that the person she was talking to was telling her how to vote.
“Kerry? Okay. Boxer? Okay. Waters? Got it. [Democrat State Assembly member Mark] Ridley-Thomas? Got it. What about these Superior Court Judges? Which State Meausures [Propositions] should I pick?”
Just great. But it’s perennial blue-state California in the heart of Kerry-Edwards lawn signs, so no need to get in too much of a twist. Enjoy!
UPDATE: It appears that BlackFive and several other Illinois Republicans have been disenfranchised. Read for yourself and see. BlackFive is also a veteran. One bird 'killed' with two stones?
UPDATE: Real Clear Politics has all the latest prognostications.
UPDATE: A moonbat-free California in the wake of a prospective Bush victory is a nice dream. However, I’m related to some of them and I actually like having them around.
Besides, I don’t think they’d like the welcome that certain anti-idiotarian Canadians might give them.
UPDATE: Ginny waxes poetic, Libertarian-style (actually she lifted it; merely a technicality).
