Joining the ranks of drug pushers are what I would call polling-place pushers. These are people who run get-out-the-vote drives or at least agitate in that regard, and they are more to be feared than any corner dope peddler. As an example, pollster John Zogby recently lamented how the young people who catapulted Barack Obama to the presidency are now losing interest in voting. He said to the League of Women Voters (LWV), “I truly am worried about today’s twenty-somethings.” I have seen them move from hope and grand expectations for themselves and their world to anxiety and disillusionment.” That’s...

Democrat Christine Gregoire will be sworn in as Washington's Governor today, possibly thanks to voters such as Mary Coffey, James Courneya and Rosalie Simpson. Why do we mention them in particular? Because, as the Seattle Post-Intelligencer recently reported, they're all dead... Revelations of the formerly living casting ballots in elections isn't new to American politics, although it's something most of us thought was a relic of the late Richard Daley's Chicago. But this isn't the only jaw-dropper to have come out of Washington's gubernatorial race, which Ms. Gregoire claims to have won -- on a third recount, by 129 votes...

SEATTLE, Dec. 22 - After a bitter and protracted recount fight in the Washington governor's race, elections officials announced Wednesday that the Democratic candidate, Christine O. Gregoire, was leading her Republican opponent by 10 votes - a minuscule margin but a stunning reversal of the Nov. 2 election results. The preliminary results elated Democratic Party officials and came only hours after the party scored another victory, when the State Supreme Court agreed with the Democrats' contention that more than 700 newly discovered and erroneously disqualified ballots in heavily Democratic King County should now be considered. Since those ballots came from...

It’s time for the chickens to come home to roost. Here are my predictions, word for word, from 30 August, 2004: “It isn’t necessary to wait until the end of the Republican Convention to make this year’s predictions. Bush will have a 5% lead after the convention. That will increase to 10% by November 2, and the Electoral College results will be a landslide for Bush. At the same time, the Republicans will gain two seats in the Senate, and 11 seats in the House. “Outside Washington, Republicans will gain one governorship, 121 seats in the various state legislatures, and...

Wolfie Blitzer looks like he is about to cry. During his interview with the Ohio Secretary of State, Wolfie Blitzer adamently continued to focus on speculation about up to 250,000 provisional votes and how that could constitute a challenge by Kerry over the projected results. One of the most revealing questions of the Ohio Secretary of State. (Not quoted but close in context) "How do Ohio and Florida compare in 2004, and do you want the same controversey over the election as did Florida's Katheryn Harris since you too are a Republican?" It is obvious CNN and Blitzer are about...

Still advantage, bush. We estimate he has 249. Yes, we are aware that some other outfits in other places have their own estimates and have bush closer to the 270 needed to win. They're entitled to that. Just want to remind you we said when the evening started, we wanted to be accuracy central. Not favoring one candidate over the other, but we have our own way of making these decisions, and having been embarrassed about the florida calls in 2000, we said to ourselves when the night started, we don't care if we're last as long as we're right....

Calling the 2004 presidential election the beginning of a fresh start for America, Teresa Heinz Kerry asked supporters at a Monday Rally at Scranton High School to "vote often" today. "Do you know how to vote often?" the wife of Democratic candidate Sen. John Kerry asked a crowd of just over 1,000 in the school's auditorium. "You vote once, and then you take one, two, three, four, five people to vote with you. That's voting often, so vote often." Citing the loss of thousands of jobs, rising health care costs, a soaring federal budget deficit and the high number of...
