How did your state fare?

[slingshot]

Tennessee went with Romney and re-elected the Republican Senator and my district's Congressman.  I was pleased even though I was dstressed by the national data.

I was shocked to learn today that less people voted for Romney than McCain 4 years ago.  I think we have a problem.  The turnout overall was also lower in general than I expected.

My thinking is is that it was the evangelicals who did not come out.

Washington did ok.
We voted Obama, but too late to make a difference.
Jay Inslee will be our governor, though McKenna may call for a recount.

Not much change in congress. The new district that had been mostly democratic is still democratic.

Legalized pot is going to be interesting.

Gay marriage, not really as controversial as I had thought.

We did pass a wrong head charter school initiative so that special interests could suck on the state teat.

Monkeyleg probably knows, other than the 10 electoral votes for Obama, and Tammy Baldwin keeping the second Senate seat in Democrat hands, the WI state government the GOP and Walker's reformers kept control/made gains.

As you all know, or should, Amendment 64 passed.  A lot of jobs will be open when the pot smokers are busted in a surprise test.

Amendment S passed which gives Veterans hiring preference and lets the state be run like a business over a gov't entity.

That's all I know except my county is all red.

I don't usually go to the state fair.

The data I've seen indicates they came out slightly more than last time.

The game is rigged. Probably not everywhere but in a lot of places, places that are safe from scrutiny but could help pad the numbers in a state that is critical.

I don't trust the electronic vote machines at all. Didn't when they first came out and have only learned over the years how easy they are to manipulate.

Even if I'm correct and elections are being influenced it doesn't matter. It would just be speeding along the inevitable anyway.

Anecdotal reporting of vote fraud pretty widespread.

Actual authorities involved in the Alan West thing.

Remember what Stalin said:  "It's not who votes that counts, it's who counts the votes."

I think we've arrived at that truth.

Also, the overall margin was only a million votes.  It all adds up.  I heard there were a number counties nationwide that voted over 100% of the estimate population.
