I never heard exactly what kerry said. Not that i'd vote for him anyway, but was the big huff about just three words, "trapped in iraq" or what? Was there more to it?

Hillary '08 bitches.

Re: today's voting
 

I've never voted, nor do I think I ever will. Politics is the one thing I'm happy to stay away from.

Re: today's voting
 

It's not so bad, really. I did a little research and put a mark next to who I thought was best.

Re: today's voting
 

Agreed, I voted before work. I also hope the vote yes for the roads passes. I think if you don’t vote you lose your right to have an opinion on certain issues. I understand why some people choose not to vote, but it’s not like it’s hard.

Re: today's voting
 

That is why I didnt vote, I didnt do any research. I wasnt going to cancel out somone's educated vote when I didnt do my part and learn about the candidates.

Re: today's voting
 

I'm happy to say that the levy for the school district I live within and work for passed by an amazing 54 votes. I'm very happy that I voted tonight.

Re: today's voting
 

I didnt vote because I dont have time to put forth the effort to see which candidate I would support. Not to mention I had like 9 hours of class today between 8am and 9:30pm and I had to study for that bio midterm. Generally I am pretty slit though, I dont vote one way or another.

I'm with Alan, I hate politics.

Re: today's voting
 

I won't say which party i voted for but here in Wisconsin we had two referendums: The death penalty and Yes for marriage. I voted Yes for both of them. Fuck the gay fawkers.

Re: today's voting
 

I support the death penalty and gay marriage. If it makes them happy, then so be it, doesn't effect my life one way or the other what they do.

Re: today's voting
 

Looks like the transportation amendment won't pass :(

Re: today's voting
 

Just gives you more options! ;)

Re: today's voting
 

I hear this morning that it did pass or was pretty safe in passing.

Re: today's voting
 

Yup from what I read today it sounds like it did pass which is good, wasn't looking good for a while there though. Now maybe MN can have a decent transportation system on par with other large cities.

Re: today's voting
 

By transportation system, do you mean more light rail/mass transit type stuff? or just more lanes on the roads?

Re: today's voting
 

I think it includes both. More Public Transit is huge. You shoudl see how packed some of the bus stops get, they need more busses and trains, and more parking and routes. More poeple will use them, especially coming from the burbs.

Re: today's voting
 

40% of the money goes to public transportation (busses, lightrail, etc.) and 60% will go into the roads.

Re: today's voting
 

I would have voted and im usually very political but too much crap has been going on lately for me to do any research on the canidates, etc.. so I passed this one.

Re: today's voting
 

What happened with the gay marriage vote in Wisconsin?

Re: today's voting
 

It passed. Noone is allowed to have a "happy" marriage in Wisconsin.

Re: today's voting
 

Yeah, cause it's either the brother or the sister that messes it up.
