Election Night !

[sheepherder]

I didn't think the TV coverage would be very interesting, but I'm getting sort of caught up in it.

I'm watching CBS. The usual blowhards and wannabe experts but they seem to be chalking up the electoral votes as they mount up rather than projecting states before all the returns are in.

I did my due diligence months ago; researching candidates (local and national) to see who agreed with my esoteric views on government and made up my voting booth 'cheat sheet'.

It turned out to be pretty much worthless. When I actually got into the booth and started filling in the circles, it soon became apparent that I was voting straight across the board. An elective 'flat liner'. No deviations whatsoever.

I don't really have any confidence in the presidential race. My only hope there is that both parties come up with better candidates four years from now.
