Interestingly, that Tyler quotation you're modifying appears to have been created from whole cloth in the relatively recent past.

With the change to mail-in/drop box voting in King County, there's a bunch of information not yet in for Washington: no exit polls, no print-outs posted after polls close. A lot of folks waited until Tuesday to turn theirs in. Maybe things will look better as those are counted?

Both CEOs (Ebay, HP, and female to boot) lost in California. We know who's shipping our jobs overseas, taking away our pensions, and don't give a damn about the "little people". It's not the bad business climate in CA, it's the CEO's looking to make more profit. Nothing CA does for businesses will bring those jobs back. The numbers can never be competitive enough.
