Myself, I'm going to resist the tempation to even peek at the
results until the 4th, when the Electoral Collage will
rise from its hole, and if it sees its shadow, then six more weeks
of vote counting and law suites.
Me, four
years ago
I voted today and the experience wasn't the five hour ordeal I've been
led to believe it was. Nope, once it was clear that I lived in the
district (oops) the actual voting process was rather quick. In fact, there
were more people there to monitor the voters than there were voters.
And no touch screens or butterfly ballets this year—just a simple paper
ballet you fed through a machine when finished. The confetti coming out the
other end was a nice touch, I thought.
I also did the right thing and voted for Cynthia McKinney, because, you know,
she's going to win.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
