Looks like Evan McMullin has a shot at winning Utah. You know, if he wins Utah and neither Hillary or Trump gets to 270, he'll probably be President.
Mal: Then I call it a win. What's the problem? Inara: Should I start with the part where you're stranded in the middle of nowhere, or the part where you have no clothes?

She got a stainless steel French press to me. Which I promptly put a ding in, proving I needed stainless steel.
Spent the first 3/4 of the day firefighting and slapping hands. Spent last quarter explaining institutionalized racism in Baltimore to my so very white guy new officemate, recently from NYC burbs. I'm sorry, your description of the "safe" L is the white L and there are ugly reasons for that, and dismissing the black butterfly means ugly things too, so let me tell you.
I don't think he was expecting that from a 40something white lady in makeup with expensive shoes, but he listened politely. And he's only in 2 days a week at most.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
How can McMullin become president if he only wins one state?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
If none of the candidates gets a majority of electoral votes, it goes to the House, which chooses among the top three candidates. The House has a Republican majority, most of whom don't like Trump or Clinton, and the Utah guy is a pretty standard conservative.

Our wings are not tired.
He's not going to win. The brainiacs told me so. [link] Also, I am back home finally so I can vote tomorrow, personally guaranteeing a Clinton win in Florida.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Let me know if you want me to hook you up with a stainless steel pan, our outlet sale is starting soon.
Ooooh! I should replace my small, scratched up non-stick.
I am back home finally so I can vote tomorrow, personally guaranteeing a Clinton win in Florida.
The power of Laura is mighty!

I'm presently parked at my mechanic garage, hoping they're working today. CHECK ENGINE light came on during my first ride this morning.
