Does this morning's eclipse portend a Red Wave? Of course not, but it may feel that way later today.

Is that a Red Moon, or a slice of chorizo? When the ballots are counted, the collective will find out the truth.

It's the moon (I already ate the chorizo).
 

Here's hoping. I'm mostly interested in my "non partisan" local school board, but all those other elections are mildly interesting, too.

My strong impression is that elections from this point on will only determine which special interest groups get the billions in taxpayer plunder and who will be investigated by congress for the next 2 years.
I hope our Cincinnatus George Washington understands and forgives us.

Long as I don't end up having to eat bugs—or this stuff:
 

I see red moon a-risin'
I see trouble on the way.
I see landslides and freak-outin'
I see media tears today

Don't watch the news tonight
Well it's bound to take your mind
There's a red moon on the rise

I came down from my mountaintop lair in Bernmontistan just to vote in my official place of residence in the land of Maggot Meth-tooth Hassan.

My town is infected with massholes moving over, Joementia got more votes than mean-tweet orange man in the last election.

In this secret ballot, there were not a lot of decisions, so the entire slate could have fit on one side of the ballot. But they printed it on both sides in extra large type. You take it to a curtained area to fill out.

Then you march across the elementary gym floor to put it into the machine tended by two poll watchers. Did I mention that you fill out *both* sides?

.....Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy,
You gotta learn to play it right......
You got to know when to hold 'em,
Know where to hide'em,
Know when to stash’em away,
And know when to run.
You never count your votes
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time enough for cheatin'
When the appearance of voting all gets done.

Everyone’s Gone to the Moon lyrics

Streets full of people
All alone
Roads full of houses
Never home
Church full of singing
Out of tune
Everyone's gone to the moon

Eyes full of sorrow
Never wet
Hands full of money
All in debt
Sun coming out in
The middle of June
Everyone's gone to the moon

Long time ago
Life has begun
Everyone went to the sun

Cars full of motors
Painted green
Mouths full of chocolate
Covered cream
Arms that can only
Lift a spoon
Everyone's gone to the moon

Everyone's gone to the moon
Everyone's gone to the moon

Hopefully tomorrow we start going to the sun again.
