Stupid question - has PA always been mostly Dem. ?

Yes-apparently they always go blue but McCain gave it a big effort there.

In Kansas they pay the poll workers. My parents have done it twice, along with a lot of other Seniors.

South Dakota''s abortion ban failed, as did Colorado''s attempt to define life as the moment of conception.

 

[Krissie]

Is it just me, or does Paul Begala look like David Sedaris?

Suffolk is ~80K, 50% white, 40ish black, 10ish other.

Charles City ~8K, 34% white, 55% black in 200 according to Wiki

OMG I didnt'' know there is a thread on this! I''m not American, but I LOVE American polictics 100x more than Canadian! On CNN, they just announced that an insider from the GOP said that they dont have any hope for McCain.

According to Wishful, Prop 2 in FL (similar to Prop 8 in CA) is doing pretty well, unfortunately, and I''m still waiting on Prop 8.

Yay!

Swimmer- I pledged today to volunteer in my precinct it next time if my work allows; I''d love to do it, and they can use the help!

 

[misspinky]

Ugh. Missouri is going McCain at the moment. 21% reporting--that however, does not include St. Louis (big city) or Columbia (big college town, mostly liberal), so I''m still holding out hope
