Where Are All the Voters? | NBC Chicago: "Illinois is hosting the nation’s first primary of 2010 Tuesday. The early voting day hasn't encouraged throngs of voters to flood the polls.In fact, its quite the opposite. No one is coming out.Polling places have been open for more than four hours, but some centers have seen just a handful of voters, said Jim Allen, communications director for the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners according to the Chicago Tribune.Despite the national implications of the primaries taking place today, critics are blaming the early voting date -- which was put in place in 2008 to help hometown guy Barack Obama -- for the low turn out." continued

Because no one comes out in the
primaries to vote, the state gets stuck with candidates that are less
than the best and then one of them gets elected in the general. That's
about it, (as we can see from the low turnouts today in an election to
replace a crooked governor, who himself replaced crooked assed
governor, representing both parties, who soon both will be in prison
simultaneously) as people stay away and we're all left with what
sticks.
Which
are usually gonna be democrats, because around here the Unions make
their people get out there and vote, and they MOSTLY vote lefty, except
for stragglers like myself and other conservatives who don't go with
the flow.
It's quite possible people are waiting, because it was kind of crappy this morning before work for some, and the trend reverses this evening which I hope is what happens, otherwise it's the S-O-S, D-D.
Here's my ballot for the record....Don't blame me when we send more crooks up to office and the next moron becomes president after a month in the senate because on one voted in the primary, at least I did.
