Well, Election Day Was Interesting...
...I heard on the radio that despite the massive payouts for campaigns this year, the electorate was THE MOST INDIFFERENT EVER.
And yet, when I went to vote after work yesterday -- for the very first time since I started voting here -- the joint was jumping. Even when Obama went head-to-head with John McCain, when supposedly almost every registered citizen showed up to duke it out in the voting booth, I was only voter #59, right at the end of the day in my precinct.
Yesterday? I was voter #600. Still a pathetic turnout, but that's more than I usually see showing up. It makes me wonder who they asked about whether they are indifferent to the midterms. And how you would even go about measuring something like indifference.
