I prefer to do my civic duty in private.

I’m slightly encouraged by today’s Supreme Court ruling regarding Ohio’s Republican push, which was seemingly to require hundreds of thousands to vote with provisional ballots. And it’s interesting that in Colorado nearly half of all voters have requested to vote via mail. Mail-in voting offers many the opportunity to vote who otherwise wouldn’t, and that’s a good thing, clearly, but I think extended polling-place hours is a better idea than encouraging all-out mail-in voting. What about Saturday AND Sunday? Or, Sat, Sun, Mon? (Wow, how liberal. . . .)

Of all your ideas, Stella, 5 strikes closest to my heart. But then I live in Utah, where redistricting is (magnified above that in many states; more pronounced here in the heart of Red-dom) a decennial hunting forray to kill the lone, Democratic, recusant Congressman.

krugman praised him for leading the way managing the economic crisis in the UK this week, so he may live to see another day. but generally the country is tired of (not so) New Labor, of Blair’s legacy, and cameron may have a fighting chance.

Remember – we don’t vote for the prime minister separately, only for the member of parliament, so it will come down to a constitutency by constituency fight in the end.

Yes, Dave, election fever has even reached the domestic confines of the Friday GW! Whatever will happen next!
