15. We're sophisticated like that.
Everyone wants to live here. It's the, err, ample employment opportunities that attracts folks...

That and those Jeff Daniels commercials on CNN really seem to have worked!

9. Yeah I noticed that. Rest of the United States, prepare to bow before Michigan!
We have you outnumbered and are preparing to take you over.

We need your jobs. We're in a one-state depression, apparently due to our rapid and unexpected population growth!

10. It's funny because "millions more stayed home"
I know a lot of people from Michigan and no one took the primary seriously. How can you take a primary seriously when THERE'S ONLY ONE DEMOCRAT ON THE BALLOT!

I think it goes over the north pole, over Eastern Russia and down across Eastern China.
I heard Beijing is trying to become the capital.

20. So far north that it encompasses Canada and then continues on to include South America.
So far north, it's south, baby.

Does that blow your mind? ;)

16. It's about damned time.
I always thought ants should be given the vote. You should try talking to them. They're remarkably well-informed about world politics. Why they've come out in support of Clinton, I have no idea.

Naw, they just counted the mosquitos.

23. If we counted mosquitos in Minnesota, it would be trillions.
People joke that the mosquito is the state bird of Minnesota.

17. Well Damn!!! Now I'm for counting Michigan. If we can bring 600 million votes...
Then we'll CRUSH McCain in the popular vote!!!!

Um, even if we lose the electoral college, this won't matter, 'cause we'll just tell everyone we won the popular vote, so we should be president!!!

Welcome to 2000...

18. I heard that too, Maria Cantwell ?
Ron Reagan bust her bubble when he asked "how many votes does Obama get in Michigan ?", she relied "none".

Let's see now, zero votes for a Black candidate from the state of Detroit, and you think that is a fair count.

Oh wow !

At least I thought I did. I guess I just found out why Dennis got four percent -- I was shooting for 99.4.

37. It was below 600,000. And 869,169 voted in the GOP Primary! (Because it "counted.")
How many of those were Democrats and independents who'd vote in the Democratic Primary (if it "counted")??? How come Michigan is one of one or two states where the GOP turnout was equal or greater than the Democratic turnout??

Yeah ... Clinton supporters just have a problem with arithmetic... theyre not even close to "math."

47. Yes...EVERYONE voted for Clinton
why, they just made a mistake when they marked another name or "uncommitted" on the ballot. Every vote should be counted for CLINTON because...well, she was on the ballot and it should be obvious to anyone who loves having votes counted that she was the only viable candidate and the only person anyone could have possibly considered voting for. . .
