We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail! [President Bush]
Good morning!! Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!
ELECTION DAY!! DO NOT FORGET TO VOTE!!
In 2000, it was decided that Democrats should vote on Wednesday. Not enought took advantage of that offer, so this year, to cut down on lines in polling places, something new will be tried.
Through special arrangement with certain folks in Canada - who, because of the extent of their magnanimity wish to remain nameless - it is now possible to dedicate special polling places just for the use of Democrats.
Democrats, think of this as your own special voting district. Republicans are to vote in the United States - no Republicans whatsover will be allowed to vote in Canada today.
On the other hand, Democrats should take the opportunity to drive north of the border and vote there. No lines - gone will be the complaints of having to wait to vote. No polling monitors - you can vote as many times as you want. You will be able to come home refreshed with the knowledge that you were able to cast thousands, even tens of thousands of votes for your candidate - and no one will so much as hassle you.
So don't delay. The north beckons. If you are a Democrat, hop in your car, drive north, cross the border, and vote. In fact, so good is this program, there are Republicans who will be more than glad - once they have cast their vote in America, because this special offer is not open to them - to drive you and other voting age (in other words, anyone who can recognize a crayon) members of your family (you will have to make your own arrangements to transport dead people) into Canada to your special polling places. (This offer, however, is only one way - you will have to make your own arrangements to return to America).
Democrats - Canada. That's where your vote should be.
[Good only on November 5, 2002. Not good with any other offer, and may not be exercised by Republicans. Offer applies to any definition of family that may be provided by a card carrying Democrat. For further details, see the back of your Rice Krispies box - they might be there. Certain other restrictions apply. No actual guarantee of voting ability is made or warranted. No ballots will be cast on behalf of the Democrat voter by the Republican. If, in fact, you are a Democrat, and you could not actually vote in Canada, complaints will be taken on November 4, 2002. No Canadians were harmed during the preparation of this offer.]
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
Night All!
That's the trick. I have lived and worked the MO 2nd district race since the time I was a teenager, and you don't know how many election nights I went to bed thinking that we'd won. To find out that the results from the RAT precincts got "withheld".....(for further 'voting'....I NOW ask myself!)
90% of vote in, Talent by 2% according to Brit.
Coleman's lead has been steady.......he's up almost 5 points, with nearly half of the precincts reporting.........but some of the Hennepin County precincts (Minneapolis) STILL HAD PEOPLE STANDING IN LINE TO VOTE AS RECENTLY AS A HALF HOUR AGO.........3 hours AFTER the polls were supposed to have been closed!!!!!!!
This is going to get ugly.
SC has kicked out a 'rat governor for a Republican.
We need a pubbie with a bullhorn in Hennepin county, to announce to those waiting in line that Daschle has already conceded the Senate!
The problem is, according to someone on another thread who is at Coleman headquarters, that these lines appear to be GROWING...........and the law is, if you are ALREADY IN LINE at 8:00 p.m., you are allowed to vote late, but not if you SHOW UP LATE. So this should get REALLY interesting.........
