Runoff; runaway?
Tuesday, 2 December 2008
Are these asters? I always think of them as asters. They’re blooming now, along with pansies. My sense of the seasons developed in the upper Midwest, and I find blooms outdoors this time of the year just plain strange.
Prediction:* when they log the votes tonight, the turnout will have been LOW and Saxby the Sleeze will get the voter’s nod, thanks to the rural vote, or alternatively because of the low urban turnout (your choice).
* Yeah, we went to vote. No line; a steady flow of voters, but no line. Remember 4 Nov? We waited an hour. BTW, we voted on four runoff elections, two of them judges….
