NEW YORK — It took me an hour and fifteen minutes to vote today in New York City. This was in the middle of the day, when most people are at work, and my line was by far the shortest I had seen walking by five or six polling stations in a state that does not matter. I can only imagine the absolute chaos at polling stations at 7:30 pm in places like Canton, Ohio or Miami, Florida. Don’t be surprised if you see multiple court orders holding voting open longer than expected tonight.
And that might be the only real reason why this election will not be called earlier than a third grader’s bedtime. As Ben Smith of Politico puts it:
The polls close at 7:00 Eastern in Virginia, Indiana, Georgia, and South Carolina, and anything other than a clean McCain sweep of those states likely means a short night.
Chuck Todd has a comprehensive schedule by state.
And Jonathan Martin writes up the counties to watch.
Hey, that’s a clever way of thikning about it.
Those trades are very compelling. Really wish that I had the balls to buy more here (or do I?). It just seems like such an easy way to make money back. The problem is that the last 3 purchases (at 640, 620, and 598) that I made trying to bail myself out is only accelerating the decline of my account balance. In retrospect, I would have been fine if I had just stuck to my original allocation and just accepted the drawdown. I am disgusted at myself over the lack of discipline. I just SO wanted to be right.
So, an attorney confesses he and his hungry wolves (almost all attorneys) commingle just to get by. And these are the good attorneys. God save us from the bad. Also, please save us from these good attorneys.
