Hmm, I haven't seen a figure yet on overall turnout.

Ohio looks to be about 52% of registered voters.

Marion county looks very suspicious. 43,814 out of 43,814 registered voters voted. 100%.

Hey world: thanks for noticing we're not always morans. :D

Now let's just hope the dems don't fuck it up. One step out of line and everyone will be at their throats...

so how many steps out of line do the GOP need to make before the same happens to them?

btw get Nancy Pelosi saying this will be the most honest, ethical congress in history :smirk: i think she should lower the bar to something like "least useless, lazy, greedy congress in history that occasionally, from time to time, actually indulges in some oversight instead of shoving its collective snout in every pork barrel that comes its way"

I didn't vote because the same bullshit will happen no matter who's in charge. As long as there's a closed minded two party system, America will keep sleeping.

Yeah, why's there a 2-party "democracy"? That system always seemed ludicrous to me.

It wouldn't be so bad if the majority of party members voted their mind and not what their party decides, but it would be easier to wait for a viable third choice

3rd choices arent always particularly representative - they can lurk in the niche voter area - Australia had the democrat party that did that, it held balance of power for awhile and nearly did something useful, and then it died.
