I just find it funny, hope you do too!
This election will be over when the Final Recount is held.
The Final Recount will consist of counting the votes of seven old men and
two old ladies. They live in various precincts in Alexandria, Georgetown,
Reston, and the like, but their vote will be held in a big marble and
limestone building in downtown Washington DC. Like many other polling places
in our great country, it's a courthouse.
However, since these Nine will be wearing goofy looking black robes (but not
white wigs like you lot wear) when they vote, it's not clear whether their
votes will reflect the will of the people any more accurately than the
little old ladies and men wearing leisure suits and gold lame shoes
(partitioning left as reader exercise) in Palm Beach County did.
At least we will get to read their reasons for voting the way they did. That
should be more entertaining than any exit poll.
This election will be over when the Final Recount is held.
I think.
