I would think they would gain a lot more power if they can get at least a sizable minority in the house and Senate. |

I only had two libertarians to choose from on my ballot. President (whom I voted for) and US. Senate (whom I did not vote for because he was the worst joke of a candidate hands down of any that was on the ballot today). |

I don't get it. Rove calls 338-200 a "landslide" and Clinton96's 379-159 was a "rout". What the hell do you call those 500+ victories like Reagan84?

We had Libs for every major race, like I said. That is better then in 2004 where I think there were maybe three. I am pretty happy about it. What I left out was that my wife, without even talking about it with her really before, went my way on all of the races and went with all Libs where possible except President. Kind of funny since I know she would have voted Nader if he were on the Texas ballot. I told her she should have wrote him in, but she said she couldn't do it and had to vote for Obama because she wanted to do what she could to keep Palin from being VP.

I got to my polling place at 5:30 Pacific, thinking I needed to leave work early to weather the line. No line. Was done in less than 5 minutes. This was somewhat surprising because I live in a fairly diverse area of LA in terms of sexual preference. I expected Prop 8 to have the polling place swarming. Oh well...time for pizza and beer.

re: Lib Party & Georgia -- I wonder, maybe Bucc or somebody will know for sure.
Isn't the 28% mark being posted by the (L) in the Georgia PSC race the highwater mark for them in the state? For the curious, the D's didn't field a candidate so it was either the R incumbent, the L challenger, or skip it.

We had one Lib, for "Senator". We had several Statehood Green candidates.

I went with Bob Barr. Can't stand Obama, couldn't bring myself to vote a Republican for the highest office with how fucked up that party is. So Barr made sense.

I voted around 4pm yesterday, there was no line. Voted McCain for Pres; abstained from the Senate vote; and voted Carol Miller (Independent) for Congress. Voted GOP for state government offices, voted no for the tax increase proposals, and yes for the various bond issuances. There were also a bunch of constitutional amendments on the ballot, mostly procedural stuff like when the school board meets and how the Lt. Gov gets appointed in certain situations... I voted for the ones that seemed sensible, voted against the ones that seemed tricky or hard to understand.
I heard on the radio last night that Hispanic voters in New Mexico polled @ 68% for Obama, which I find shocking - that right there is where McCain lost, at least in this state (imo). |
