My major bummer is Doggett.

He's been a friend of the family since I was a little girl. I have always supported him along with many of my republican family members. I am so sad that he lost.

Valinda Bolton, another one that saddens me.

*sigh*

6. You're welcome!

I was looking at the Chronic to get some news on the propositions we voted on and saw they had Doggett listed as winning. One bit of good news to go to bed on tonight :)

7. A really good friend of mine lost her seat in the MI state house.

It broke my heart. MrG and I worked so hard for her, and she was one of the up and coming good ones.

10. I'm upset about Valinda Bolton as well.

I've worked with her opponent, and Valinda is the better choice.
