    I slept thru election day...

    HEY! Barely a day and a half after finding little evidence of when the elections would be (just the nominations), I find I've missed the Prez's elections completely! Is 24 unannounced hours really the way to go for this?

    And where in the blue hell is the Science Advisor poll? I only see the Prez and Foreign Advisor ones.

    The other ministers ran unopposed, and thus won by default. Sorry you overslept!

    If it's any comfort, the elections were landslides and your vote would not have mattered.

    That's not the way to think!

    If everyone thought that, _I_ could have been President by being the only voter. (You SHOULD be afraid.)

    I like to think I represent the silent masses that missed out on voting, who could have tipped the balance of power strongly. But then, I need to get out more.

    Damn! Polls here seem to be like buses - you've just missed 5 and there's not another for the entire day you stand at the bus shelter.

    Have I turned up at the voting chambers when everyone voted themselves a compulsory holiday, or what? WANNA VOTE ON SOMETHING!

    It was the end of the month. Is that a tricky concept, or what?

    I agree, Hydey, that was a lame reason to post.
