Oddly enough, I wore a Santana/Nathan '04 shirt today.

I already filled out an absentee ballot and did write in a couple of baseball players for those random unopposed offices. Psssh, they need some competition.

I'll take that list with Sweetcheeks as the Secretary of the Treasury.

"Senator, I've caught for Boof, I've planned a pitch-out with Boof, I've even gone to the post-season with Boof. And you sir are no Boof Bonser."

See, that name carries as much power as the one it replaced.

*laugh*

what? no judges or local races??? BG, you just crack me up.

The right to vote is a cherished American heritage, and trifled to be with not. That being said, why was TFOTF not on the ballot? He has served his county well for over 10 years, and, at 12 mill per, he should be given something to do.

If I had thought of it while filling out my early-voting ballot, I would have put Santana and Nathan down for the local schoolboard elections. They certainly would do better than the people running.

BG,

I would vote in those guys for those positions EVERY TIME, no doubt about it. I love how LNP is on the State Legislature.

Actually, I would rather see Sweetcheeks as the Secretary of Defense (RIM SHOT!) Gotta go fake like I'm doing work.

I checked out Andy Luger's website, he does not seem to be prominently displaying his BatGirl endorsement, questions will be asked :-)

I'm suddenly torn...

I had previously intended to vote on a straight-ticket "those incumbents who supported the Twins stadium".

Now BG had to throw this wrench into my plan. Fortunately, I'm a [insert political party here], and always make sure to vote more than once!

Time to vote for Boo:

Does Justin get to wear the Dudley Do-right outfit???

I think Bradke would make a splendid governor. You don't need a functional shoulder for that sort of work.

I am definitely voting for Andy Luger. I've met him and he seems like he would be a great prosecutor, the kind of guy you don't want to mess with. I hope he beats Mike "Oh, I guess I want my old job back" Freeman. Unfortunately, he has name recognition. I'm crossing my fingers for Luger.

Ha! I'll vote the whole ticket.

By the way, I made the unfortunate blunder the other night of asking my husband, "Should I wear my green pants with the black sweater or the black jeans with a pink and peach sweater or (etc., etc.)?

He responded, "You know, I can't actually picture any of your clothes except the Santana/Nathan shirt." Serves me right, and reflects very well on Batgirl's merchandise.

holy crap. I voted for Zumaya thinking that no twins made it on the Setup man of the year ballot.
I went back and voted 50 times for Juan to fix my mistake.

An Andy Luger thought,

in Britain jobs like that are not elected, we have no democratic say as to how an issue like law enforcement is dealt with in our communities. So many decisions which are decided locally in the US, with local accountability, are decided here by central government or by unelected bodies with little or no democratic oversight. And as for seperation of powers; the head of the executive is also the head of the legislature and the head of the judicary has gone from being Tony Blair's first boss to his old housemate.
Appreciate what you have and pull those levers and press those buttons with pride.
Plus you have baseball not in the middle of the night :-)

Well, Dan in London, when you think about it, our system of government comes from YOUR system of government (or, at least, the early Americans used your system of government as an example of how we DIDN'T want our government to work). So in a way, we owe our democracy to your country.

Hey, We finally *DO* get to vote a Santana/Nathan ticket!

NO Twins for D? ::Crushed.::(

How did Wainwright get *two* chances for Postseason?

Could I stump for Lil' Rod and Castillo to also be in the State Legislature? There's more than one seat available, you know.

(This message brought to you by The Piranhta Party. When you think "party", Think "piranhta". ;)

I met Andy Luger, very nice and enthusiastic man. Wish I could vote for him!

Alas I have the Californians to vote for, and all of the referenda (FOURTEEN of them).

I voted the Batgirl party line. Also, there's a judge in Hennepin County whom I couldn't bring myself to vote for, which will explain why Goober got a write-in vote.

Ohhh no - not two Twins!

Hey, cool, I voted for Luger and I didn't even know he carried the Batgirl endorsement. Good luck to him!

I voted, and none of those guys was listed. Was that because I was in Ma.? I never graduated from the electoral college, so I am like naive-word.

Exercise your right and pop on over to MLB.com to vote for the This Year in Baseball Awards. There are two Twins (!)up for Hitter. I solved this problem by voting twice for each of them. Jeter's up for that, so they'll probably both be robbed. : ( Nick Punto should have been nominated for his defense! They didn't give him the Gold Glove and they don't even give him a nod for the TYIB Awards. Boo, MLB! Just kidding. Kind of.

Here's the Henn. County Attorney update. (Not called *yet*.)

Sorry to see Andy Luger didn't win. He looked a good guy,

A lot of the candidates that I voted for won, but I'm pissed about the Andy Luger race. It's not that his opponent is a bad candidate, it's just that Luger was SO much the better candidate. Well, you can't win 'em all.

Justin should be Surgeon General
