In these early hours of election day, some voting irregularities have already begun to "disenfranchise" voters, which undoubtedly the Democrats will blame on the Republicans, even though some of the problems include heavy flooding in Washington State (not caused by Republicans - ed.) and one person oversleeping and causing the polls to open five minutes late in Indiana (probably caused by Republicans).
Then there's the case of the poll worker choking a voter in Kentucky, but that's just another day living in that state, we don't think it's any sort of sordid way to stop people from voting.
Also, there's some weird lawsuit going on in Tennessee by a Democratic lawyer whom is claiming that since black people don't do anything until after dark, the polls should stay open later. Seriously, that's not a racist joke on our part.
That's his actual goddamn argument.
But regardless of these problems and quite a few more, we're pretty sure that neither of the two parties are attempting to win a mid-term election with shady actions. They're saving the big guns for 2008, when it will actually matter.
P.S. - No exit poll numbers yet, thank God. Guess people realize how badly they were off last time. Plus, both sides are saying don't trust them, since the Dems are still stinging while the GOP is hoping the numbers aren't correct.
