Did you get the evil robocall?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our governor got reelected, which I'm glad about.

not your mom's socks.

Whew, not another round of Gov. Stupidhair.

Seriously.

This. (from out of state, but still. This.)

Did you get the evil robocall?

We don't have a landline so, no. That's CRAZY!

I did not know that our Lt. Gov is half Jamaican and half Swiss. I wonder how his folks met.

Jesse, we had a fun race between the incumbent and the previous-gov he defeated last term. Stupidhair vs. Weirdlyboyish.

All I really cared about was my city council reps (which happened in the primary. Love Mary Pat and yay! neighbor first-timer Mary Washington!) re-electing Barb Mikulski, not re-electing Jessamy and Ehrlich losing his second bid at gov.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Looks like Virginia is losing the House seat to the Republican. I'm not surprised. Not happy, but not surprised.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

sigh. Just voted, but feeling dejected about it.

OMG Barbara Mikulski is adorable! She is like half as tall as O'Malley!

Love Mary Pat and yay! neighbor first-timer Mary Washington!

Mary is the partner of a long-time Ride for the Feaster. She has been a volunteer on the Ride the past couple of years and is an awesome cheerer. I'm really excited that she's gotten into politics. She has amazing energy!

ETA I'm enjoying my little Bmore politics happy bubble right now.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

DJ, my sympathies for all who knew him.

sara, I didn't get the robocall, but I'm livid anyway. Ehrlich's camp is saying that they had nothing to do with it, and I believe them. It would be utterly foolish otherwise. This is independent money (as a result of the Supreme Court decision) at work. Gansler's already opened an investigation.

Ehrlich's running mate, Mary Kane, is a friend of mine from law school. Still didn't make me vote for the ticket.
