I will literally eat some portion of a NY Yankees baseball cap if Astorino wins.

The one thing I've learned about NY Politics since moving here is that I want nothing to do with them, also ballot access lines are loving hilarious. So I guess that's two things.

Sapient also advocates for the return of the line-item veto, weekend elections, replacing the electoral college with direct election of the president, federal referendum on all tax increases, and a whole boatload of lobbying reforms.

The Puppy Bowl posted:Well Grimes, maybe next time when someone asks you if you voted for the leader of your party you say something other than "Ummm...". McConnell was beatable. I don't even have to go that far, apparently.

Kentuckians aren't complete idiots. McConnell is really really good at bringing federal money to the state, and people are just banking on him being able to do that even better as a majority leader. Eastern Kentucky easily has some of the best highways in the entire country, hands down.

axeil posted:Although, there are way more rural states than urban ones. my bad math says if CA had senators apportioned at the same ratio that the least populous state has (WY), then CA would send like 90 senators to washington to WY's 2.

Not that Andrew Cuomo's presidential ambitions weren't tacitly hosed before tonight, but he's certainly not going to clear 60% which is a virtual loss. Thankfully the rest of the nation will be spared from his primary candidacy. Schneiderman is pulling like 70%+ on the AG ballot, go him.
