Help save these people from being forced to relocate to a Red State...
Danny and Nina

http://www.dannyandnina.com/theidea.php

have pledged to move from New York to where ever people vote to send them. Unfortunately, people in Germany and
elsewhere have started a movement to send these nice people to the god-forsaken realm of Plano, Texas.

Help save these nice people from the fate of having to watch Friday Night Highschool Football for
entertainment. Let's all vote to send them to somewhere nice and Blue. I like Seattle.

Please go to the site above and vote often for Seattle.

1. Weak strategery
Seattle isn't even in the top 25, you'd be best off picking the highest non-red state contender, which looks to me like Blaine, Minnesota.

8. Blaine?
Don't send 'em to Blaine. Send 'em south of the river.

:D

3. Why save people from themselves?
People who leave a major life decision up to strangers are beyond our help. :shrug:

6. and it's not necessarily a bad decision, either
Some people can handle it, some can't. But I'm taking it as a chance to be in a whole 'nother world for a few years-- then get back to a good blue state :)

12. No, don't do that!
There really are too many people here already. The infrastructure (social services, roads, employment opportunities, etc...) is seriously overwhelmed. All part of the very shortsighted ongoing plan to turn the place into a commuter suburb of Atlanta.
I have two more years left on my contract and then we are out of here.

7. If they're blue, Plano could use their help!
And we have a few nice DUers there.

10. I wanted to vote for North Pole, Alaska, but the fuckers don't have it.
In fact, they don't have any Alaska options.

11. How are they being forced?
Looks like they are choosing to do this.

I think they are heading to Plano.
