UPDATE: Your Vote May Count (Almost)

Earlier this a.m., or this p.m., or whenever we'd looked, it appeared that S.F. D.A. Kamala ("Opposed to the Death Penalty") Harris was losing to former L.A. D.A. Steve ("Supports State-Sanctioned Murder") Cooley in the Calif. A.G. race, which appeared to be a blot on our otherwise golden state's electoral performance, meaningless pseudo-theatre that it is.

So you can imagine our surprise (almost pleasure, even, if only for bragging rights) when, while we were showing a friend where her horses had come in on the SoS's site we saw:
Hot damn.
"★★Close Contest★★" may be Secretary of State short-hand for not counting one's chickens prior, & who better than a whatever of lawyers to drag this one out, but that mere-appearing 0.2% diff is almost 15,000 votes. Fingers crossed, or extended rudely.

In the learning something dep't., we learned that the Artificial Intelligence Party is on the ballot. Very disturbing. Good thing they're only 2% of the vote.

And congratulations to the almost seven million humanoids (Out of 30 million+ residents.) who did vote in the A.G. race. Fucking sheep.

  1. Looks like Truman won this time too. There's a joke about someone being willing to kill for a Harris victory just waiting for someone with less sensitivity than I to tell it. Bueller? Bueller? Anyone? I'm surprised it didn't show up in one of those sorraful copper campaign ads.

    You were here in the Brown glory days. I was just watching from afar. Whaddaya think are the chances he can/wants to actually do something productive this time around?
