Voted at 9am in Ridgefield, Connecticut, the northernmost town in Chris Shay's congressional district. Took about 15 minutes. People were taking a little time to vote, but Lieberman was way down the ballot. We have old lever machines. Top line is R, then D, then Green, Libertarians, and other moonbat parties, then comes the "Connecticut for Lieberman" party. So I think people had to look all the way down to find Joe on the line all by himself. Our town went about 57% for George W Bush in 2004.

Our Republican governor, Jodi Rell, is going to walk over the kooky Destefano (whose campaign platform consists of a full scale assault on the law of supply and demand). Lieberman should win, if people can find his name. It was sort of strange with it down so far. Shays is in a tough race, as are the other 2 Connecticut Republican reps. (Connecticut has 3 Rs and 2 Ds in its congressional delegation, as we have non-partisan folks do the gerrymandering, and Dems are heavily clustered in New Haven and Hartford).

The local state senator will win, the local state rep is unopposed (both are Republicans). The rest of the state-wide offices (AG, Treasurer) will go heavily democrat, the Republicans sadly have no bench in this state.

Yep, Lieberman's name was actually partially covered by the voting machine's lever when I went to vote this morning.

One would have to kind of reach around it to vote for Joe.
