OUCH! I just checked the preliminary results, and so far only one of the Propositions is going the way I voted. One I really wanted to pass -- same day voter registration at the polls -- is going to get killed by a landslide. Oh well, it could be written better.

So I guess we're selling another $30 billion dollars in bonds for causes that have no oversight whatsoever. When they say it "won't raise taxes," does anyone ever realize we have to PAY THAT BACK WITH TAX MONEY!!!

LOL... at least my State Rep is winning by a landslide. Now, am I the only one that thinks it's ironic that the states are moving toward Democratic governors, while voting Republican for Congress? I'm all for checks and balances, but there's not a lot the states can do unless you're a biggie like CA and can tell the Attorney General to go stuff himself over medical marijuana.

But I like my Federal government nice and locked up so they gotta to talk to each other and compromise... my fave would be a Green President, Dem House and Repub Senate :D

Assuming the Repubs get control over both houses of Congress, hold on to your wallets. The corporations are gonna get tax breaks and you and me are gonna have to pay the difference. I may have to start cheating on my taxes.
