In a few hours, it’ll all be over...or will it? I’m not going to say much tonight, but I want to make one observation:
I’m hearing reports that it may take a few days to count all the absentee and early ballots in some states. You know what that means, don’t you? That we may not know the actual results for a couple of days after the election. Again!
Am I the only one terrified by this? Am I the only one concerned that the specter of the 2000 election will return to haunt us? Is this, my worst nightmare, likely to actually come to pass?
I hope not...I hope that the election tomorrow delivers clear and decisive results. I hope that Americans can accept those results. I hope that no one tries again to steal the election from us. I hope. And since so much of this election has been about hope, I’m going to hold on to a bit and wish you all well tomorrow, no matter who you’re voting for.
Like the song says;
"...on with the show, this is it."

The Election of 2000 was stealable only because of the Electoral College. Abolish that, and only bullets can override the ballots.
Today's election will either be a landslide, or it will come down to Troy, Ohio's ballot box. yay.
I've been, I've voted. I don't care how people vote as long as they get out there and do it. We are using paper ballots here and I made very sure that I marked mine clearly and firmly so that there can be no question as to for whom I cast my votes.

I miss that little singing frog.
