Oh, information for life then! Good.

Horrifyingly, probably not too far off the mark.

Just went and voted. Was all alone at the early voting center in Chevy Chase.

For the record, every category had a Green candidate. Though the only ones I'd heard of were Stein and the chick running against Evil Van Hollen.

Jesus Christ, Hillary, what's the matter with you?

Well...two days.

This election is pointless unless Hilldawg gets a mandate (more than 50% of the popular). If she gets less than 50%, we're doomed. Period.

[monkey!]

Two days until President Trump.

It's SHOW TIME!

Our queer little NH towns are in. Though this is just a publicity stunt for resort hotels, analysts have always held them up as the sort of overall temperature of what the election will look like...

The first actual results of the 2016 presidential election are in: Voters in Dixville Notch, N.H., cast 4 votes for Democrat Hillary Clinton, 2 for Republican Donald Trump and one for the Libertarian Party’s Gary Johnson.

Mitt Romney, the GOP’s 2012 presidential nominee, got a single write-in vote in the country’s “First in the Nation” balloting.

Two other New Hampshire towns claiming “First” status, Hart’s Location and Millsfield, cast and counted their ballots after midnight Tuesday as well. The grand total for all three gave Trump a 32-to-25 edge over Clinton.

Clinton got 4 votes in Dixville to Trump’s 2; 17 in Hart’s Location to Trump’s 14; and 4 in Millsfield to Trump’s 16.

My polling place had a line about 100-120 deep when the polls opened. Voting was easy.

I went Clinton/Kaine for the big ticket.

House Dem Gerry Connolly ran unchallenged so I gave him my vote.

Amendment one was right to work. I voted "yes" to prohibit collusion between employers and unions.

Amendment two was allowing counties to offer property tax relief (if so they choose) to the widows of first repsonders killed in the line of duty. I voted "yes" there too.

The apocalypse begins at 7pm!!

Off to the Dish for party time!
