Get Ready for Mapping!
It's Election Day 2008, and I am going out on a limb. My Cart class is meeting tonight, and we're going to stay up late making election maps for the Daily Universe! Follow us on this blog!
Polls aren't closed yet on the west coast, and as usual we will be a moot point by the time they know our votes. I don't like watching the tv programs because the electoral votes are decided based sometimes on 1% of the votes in (and that's actually just from exit polls).
I am hoping that our governor race is decided quickly this time. Same two candidates as before, decided in court by about 150 votes last time.
