I just got my Florida absentee ballot in the mail.
We have 13 candidates for President on the ballot. Fucking Ralph Nader is on there again. Bob Barr as a Libertarian. Allen Keyes as AIP candidate whoever they are. Maybe it's the American Idiot Party. Cynthia McKinney is a Green.

I don't know what Brian Moore is doing on there. I know him, and donated money to him when he was running against Bill Nelson, even though I voted for Nelson. I hope he doesn't siphon off any Obama votes, because he's going to need them all.

And a bunch of other people I never heard of.

I'm voting for every "D" on the ticket. Except one. I know everyone on the ticket, including the asshole who's getting an undervote in a county race. He ran for the same office as a Dem in 2004, and we all supported him. When he lost big time, he held a press conference to announce that he was switching to the Republican Party, because he just didn't share the values of the Democratic Party. He was going to run for the same office as a repuke, but earlier this year they decided to support someone else for that office, and he switched his party back to Dem. Fuck him and the elephant he rode in on.

And, they misspelled McLame's running mates name. I thought it was spelled M-O-O-S-E-L-I-N-I.

1. Good to see they're on the ball this year, I guess.
I didn't get mine last time until a week *after* the election. Those bastards.

2. I'd get on their ass about it this time.
Pasco sends them out a little too early in my opinion. For the primaries, we got them 2 months before the election.

3. Already?
That's crazy. A million things could happen between now and the election. In WA we get ours about a week before voting day.
