Yeah, and the hip-huggers.

Geez, they were incredibly ugly the first time around. I can't believe the clothing industry has gone and done it to our daughters, too, especially with obesity on the rise big time. Nobody, no matter how good her shape, looks good in those pants. They detract from those with a good shape and enhance every flaw of somebody with a not-so-good shape. They make the waistline look huge, legs look short, and thighs look fat. They add about 20 lbs. in appearance to even the slimmest figure.

Hideous.

As for boomers, lefty boomers and trailer trash are the ones who dress like unmade beds or haven't noticed that everything has headed too far south as well as east & west for them to be sporting styles designed for bodies under thirty-five.

Monks is indeed a spoiler, and he has to know it or else he's too stupid to placed in charge of scraping rat droppings, let alone be DA. Someone should throw a net over that idiot. I guess he doesn't realize that if Liefong wins as a result of s split vote, which is quite likely, he is about to become the most reviled man in Durham County, and ridiculed even by those who benefit from the split - just for being so grossly stupid to play into their hands. What a colossal moron. Nobody can shoot himself in the foot like a Republican, and manage to splatter everyone around him with the mess.

You're such a nice person I hated to even do that but the pedant in me took over. I hope you can forgive.

Nope, I believe it is a simple plurality wins. That is the candidate with the most votes wins and their is no run off in the general. As far as I know Louisianna were there are no primaries and everyone runs together in the general is the only state with runoff general elections. But there may be others I don't know about.

WHO in the hell created this ballot? Wait, don't tell me. Let me guess.

What could possibly be the reason for instruction D? Why would they require a voter to fill in an oval for somebody they DO NOT intend to vote for in order to make their vote valid for the person they intend to vote for?

I didn't read the instructions. Duh!

This is actually better than I thought. If someone votes a straight DEM ticket but also votes Cheek, it does not invalidate the ballot and the vote will go to Cheek.

I read instruction D differently than you do and it doesn't actually apply to this ballot. The key is "multi-seat race". Notice on this ballot that you can only vote for one person in each race.

There are races where you can vote for multiple people - city council, etc. I think what this is saying is that if you vote a straight DEM ticket but in the multi-seat race vote for a REP then you must also mark the DEMs you want too or you would have voted for the REP only.

Direction D seems pretty clear to me. If you want to vote a write in you must both write in the name and fill in the bubble.

That's the way I read it, but I'll read it again because LB says it only applies to multi-seat races. I hope he's right. I'll read it again later. What LB is saying makes more sense than what it SEEMS to say at a first reading.

Well "hagiography" was a vocabulary word in high school and 30 years later I finally got to use it so "St. Precious" fit right in. I wonder if Ruth's running for her dictionary?

Three paragraphs was enough for me.

I presume the families and their civil lawyers are keeping book on this stuff.
