_everybody won_ - Politics
Posted on: 2008-11-05 06:54:03

I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who voted, whoever you voted for. By voting, you became a hero for democracy, so even if you candidates did not win, you did.


Hooray for democracy! :D

Hooray for us and the US! :) I do have to admit that I'm giving a sigh of relief for not having to think about voting again for a little while. It's time to work on my novels, hehe. ;)

I hear ya'

Wow, I'm so glad we voted early then. We got there when there was a lull, so we only had a few minutes to wait. I wonder if the government will consider making early voting more standard to help alleve the stress on the polls on election day so no one else wlil have to wait so long ever again.

Democracy?

Well for the president elect it was based on democracy (majority rules). However, he is not actually elected the President until the Electoral College votes in December. It is doubtful they will not vote Obama in, but they do have the ability to vote who they want and not the President Elect.

True, but no one wants a downer. :)

And this was not my original post...it wasn't even in my first five posts, but I have tried to keep the blog mostly non-partisan, because honestly people don't actually come to read my opinion about things, and I know that. So I figured I would pander to both sides, go with something safe, and not voice my opinion in any way...unlike my wife.

...I'm sick, we just received Dustie the Cat's ashes yesterday, and the company I work for might be closing its doors soon. Therefore, I'm not quite at the top of my game right now. :|

Yeah.
