#1 Wow! Illinois & Michigan! Over-confidence makes me very uncomfortable, but maybe just maybe, the insane 1/3 of Americans won't be able to fool enough people to hand this election to the worst candidate to be put forward in modern times.

We shall see if the kids have it right - and the political punks are morons.

I'd like to know more baout how this vote was conducted... there's quite a bit on this page, but not everything, such as how they prevented multiple votes / stuffing, etc. Nonetheless, I'm impressed. Very cool.

Thx, Dar!

#2 Here's how I'm seeing this...
These teens are still in H.S. and living at home. They most likely reflect the political leanings of their parents, thus how their parents will vote.

A plus in my book.

#3 My sister is a teacher, and of course toes the union line. She says that teenagers are stupid anyway. I see it as the future being in good hands.

#5 I don't believe it for a second. I wish it were so.

#6 My daughter was involved in this. Each student received a slip of paper with information on the vote, the website address, and a single-use sign-in code. So, unless someone got a bunch of these slips, they couldn't vote more than once.

As for the results: I am starting to feel a little better about this election. Not totally, as Mr. Wife and I still disagree on who should be president, but it looks like a lot of improper registrations are being thrown out, and I've started to wonder how many of the legitimate new registerees will actually betake themselves to their polling places Nov.2.
