40cakesNJ Congressional District 7
Oh, Linda Stender. I know you were a spender, but I woulda voted for you if it had been my district. And really, "Linda Stender is a Spender" is much more catchy than "Mike Ferguson opposes stem cell research," but I think the latter got a much better point across.
NJ Congressional District 13
I think this is up north somewhere, but the repub candidate was named Guarini. Since he also came in second place, I think he and Justin Guarini (of American Idol) should get together and have a wacky roadtrip reality show, with the title some sort of play on "number two" (poop).
Connecticut Senate
Oh COME ON Connecticut! Lieberman wins by 100,000 votes?! Oh I wish I wish that those last 5% precincts come back 100% Lamont. That'll work, right? Right? HE SAID RAPE VICTIMS CAN JUST WALK TO A DIFFERENT HOSPITAL!
NJ Senate
Menendez wins, in one of the key races in the country. He always voted well on women's issues (I think Planned Parenthood gave him a seal of approval), so I was prepared to vote for him this year. And then he said yes to, "Yeah, the President is totally allowed to torture anyone he wants, right?" and my mind was changed. But seriously, everything else about his platform seemed good to me. Guh. So I voted for him, even though I wrote him an angry letter when that resolution passed.
California Prop 85: Parental Notification
South Dakota Ref 6: Ban on Abortion
No to both. I literally let out a sigh of relief when I saw these.
Pennsylvania Senate: Santorum loses to Casey
Y'know, there are few people I enjoy sharing my name with. It stems from random strangers finding themselves witty by saying things like, "Oh, KC and the Sunshine Band! Hur!" and "Casey Kasem! Casey Jones!" etc. But man. This Casey, even as a surname, is totally allowed to borrow my name. In fact, I wish I had a headline of "Casey Beats Santorum" that I could hang at my desk or something. That would be icing on the cake. Now Ricky, go back to the swamp dimension from which you came.

My favorite Casey/Santorum moment? Santorum's neighbors photographed the inside of his house through the window's, showing that it was bare and that, as he did not live in the area, was ineligable to run for office here. His reaction? Threaten charges of trespassing and harassment.
