I voted at about 5 pm.
Standing outside were democrat and republican poll watchers. The rat was all grins as the repubie was sadly looking at some list on the outside.
After voting, I talked to the republican poll watcher, and asked him how it was going. He said that about 30% of the republicans had not shown up to vote. The rats were running at about 80% and usually did well towards the end of the day.
What is wrong with Republicans in CA? I just can't imagine why they stayed home en masse.
Are they French?
Yeah, it was clear to me also that this election came down to a simple matter of turnout. The tax-eaters turned out their voters, the taxpayers did not. Prop 73 should have passed in a landslide if more normal people showed up to vote. Fact that it lost, proves that only the liberals came out in force.
