Nov 8th, 2016: Election

Election day is finally here, thank God. Like the last couple hundred years, half, or more, of the candidates are going to lose.
If your choice for the local or national lesser evil loses, get the fuck over it.



It's not the end of the world, stop the hate, stop the insults, stop the divisiveness.
Make up, or at least form a truce, with old friends and family, even if they are stupid for not agreeing with you.
You'll be much happier.

What's with the artillery piece in the middle?

Whatever happens today, at least a welcome absence of politicians hurling insults and abuse at one another should follow. For a while.

My fellow Americans, I have no advice for you other than don't vote out of hate.

If you don't vote, then you can't bitch.

Whoever wins, we'll muddle through. We always do. It'll be fine.

BBC correspondent in Arlington has just sent a report from outside the Aurora Hills Recreation Centre polling station. Do you know it?

If Hillary wins, I predict alt-right terrorism. I hope I'm wrong

That's cool. Yes, I do. It's on the other side of town, but my kids have played soccer games on the field there a couple times. It's only about 2-3 miles from my house, but in neighborhood that's not on the way to anything else, so I rarely go there.

Reporter was Paul Wood and he sent a couple of reports to the lunchtime news showing how busy the place was just after opening.

This is right up there with world peace.

Would be nice, but....

What if I'm not allowed to vote? Can I still bitch?

Pretty please?

Polling sites quiet here. Unsurprising since Washington has been an all vote by mail state for a few years now. However, there are reports that some ballot drop boxes are too full to accept any more ballots. These are big boxes, maybe 3x6x6.

That's a lot of ballots.

I predict more than one black voter shot by police after they are called to intervene when white Trump supporters menace voters at the polls.

Permission granted. :thumb:

I didn't want to hit the poll at lunch time because I figured they'd be busy, but my schedule got messed up and got there about 12:45.
Both sides of the sidewalk lined with people handing out literature.
As I walked across the parking lot, they're all looking eagerly at me, I swear they were salivating.
I stopped short and said, "What, do I look like a T-bone steak?"
It took longer for the three women at the table to write my name in their three notebooks, than waiting my turn and voting.
They said it was a very good turnout.

I voted 2 weeks ago, we went by city hall and the parking lot was full and people were parking wherever they could. The city in their infinite wisdom has made all the streets around city hall no parking.
