What time will precincts start reporting in?
Kentucky and Indiana polls close in ~10 minutes. A bunch more start reporting an hour after that.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Thrive to spite them
So due to the way Facebook links common keywords together I have (under Most Recent) one of my former co workers (who is in Florida) posting a picture of her voting and Thumbs up for Romney
Directly under that picture is DavidS's wall post about how Obama could lose Florida and other key states and still win.
It almost looks like DavidS is replying to the thumbs up post. Which he's not but I had to do a double take.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In Cincinnati at least - maybe all of Ohio? - we use paper ballots, which are then tabulated by machines. Which means if there is a dispute over the tabulations, there could be a manual recount. Not that this would be fun, but I do appreciate the paper trail for this reason.
Here too! And me too, I mean.
There were a couple of people in front of me, but probably 80% or more of the district had already voted -- the guy said he's never seen turnout like that there. So that's good! I was #500, and got a sticker.

I am sick of hearing about respecting the other side, and about people being tired of hearing about the election. Fuck that.
Yep.

I love my OCR ballots and don't understand how any place would choose touchscreens instead. Instant count at the time you vote AND there's a big fat non-chaddy piece of cardstock in case it comes to that! What's not to like?
Absofuckinglutely. They ought to be standard.

I'm going to go to my usual Tuesday night trivia, because I think I will be more sane with a break in obsessive results watching. This won't keep me from hovering around the televisions between questions.

Okay, so reports are that Romney has only written a "winning" speech and it is at 1,500 words.
At his "celebration" party there is a CASH bar.
OMG.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

If he loses he'll just read out his "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt" article, with 'Detroit' crossed out and 'Everyone' written in block capitals.
