Swouncing

I felt so bad about having to close the vote a couple of hours too early, I returned to my computer anyway, middle of the night or not, to make sure I can clear things before shabbat and not leave people hanging without final answers. The issue is delicate enough as it is.

I got 3 more votes after I posted (Jon, thank you so much for leaving the ballot open). They didn't change the final result. The numbers are 51 for NO and 45 for YES.

Again, I'm deeply sorry about my (timezoned) need to leave the computer early. I thought it would be better than leaving the results hanging until Sunday, but clearly, I should have mentioned the problem earlier, and deal with it better. I apologize for any confusion, tension or any other sort of problem that it caused.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Nilly, thank you for counting!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

No problem, Nilly. You are a (Little Jewish) Saint for checking in the middle of the night!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Holy crap that was a squeaker.

I can't help wondering if removing No Preference as an option made a difference.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Thanks for the update, Nilly, and for counting the votes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks, Nilly -- sorry the timing was so bad for you!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Thanks, Nilly. You're a peach.

I can't believe you got up in the middle of the night to check on us. Enjoy your Shabbat!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Nilly's great. Count us some Fireflyvotes Late!

(what? I was trying to get the choco cake rhyme of Cosby)

Happy Shabbat!
