It is finally here. Ever since the Supreme Court voted 5-4 not to recount the Florida votes in 2000, I’ve been anxious for this 2004 election, like millions of others. I don’t know what to think now. Some factors have broken Kerry’s way–the huge turnout possibilities, the narrowing of most swing states, the lack of any good news for Bush. But I wake up to hear that Ohio is going to be an absolute mess because of these challengers that will be allowed into voting precincts that were first barred by lower courts and then allowed by higher courts and then still allowed after John Paul Stevens refused to intercede at 2AM.
Meanwhile…I slept well for the first time out of town, very likely due to the 3/4 bottle of pinot grigio I had, which helped soothe some wounds. But I shall not discuss these Dave issues today. Today is about the election.
