[tpfkaw]

Governor & Lt. Governor

Baker & Tisei (R)

Baker ran on a relatively libertarian platform, and was supremely qualified for the position.  I was quite disappointed he lost.

Attorney General

James P. McKenna (R)

Martha Coakley (D) is an evil, evil woman (see that movie which just came out, Conviction, with Hillary Swank, if you don't believe me).  Of course she wins by a larger margin than any other statewide anything.

Secretary of State

James D. Henderson (I)

Galvin (D) has been SoS forever.  Should have been time for someone else to have a chance.

Treasurer

Karyn Polito (R)

Steve Grossman (D), our new treasurer, has been around a while, having served as president of AIPAC and as DNC chairman.  His political star power, despite his being a moron, comes from the fact that his family owns the largest manufacturer of stationery in Massachusetts and they spent years currying favor by providing politicians with free stationery.  Karyn Polito, on the other hand, ran on a platform of ending pensions for state legislators - which would be an incredibly positive reform - most of our state legislators just want the office for the pension, which breeds a great deal of corruption and incompetence.

Auditor

Mary Z. Connaughton (R)

Suzanne Bump (D), was an absolute trainwreck of a candidate.  First of all, she wasn't actually an accountant.  Second, she appeared to need some auditing herself, as she's a tax cheat.  And late breaking before the election, we learned that she had a paroled Satanic ritual murderer on her campaign staff (no, seriously).  And she won.  Apparently we have enough morons in MA who just check every candidate with a (D) next to their name that she won.  Presumably she'll have to look up "auditing" in the dictionary before being sworn in.

MA-08

Write-in: Myself

Unopposed.

State Rep.

Write-in: Myself

Unopposed.

State Senate

Write-in: Myself

Unopposed.

Question 1 (eliminate sales tax on alcohol)

No.

(If you must have a sales tax, it ought to be uniform)

Question 2 (eliminate zoning waivers for low-income housing)

No.

(MA zoning laws could have been written by Stalin, so I'm in favor of anything that could get around them)

Question 3 (cut sales tax to 3% from 6.125%)

Yes.

(Duh.)




As you can see, I'm not good at picking winners.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Senate: Alvin Greene (D)
Governor: Nikki Haley (R)

Congress: Dan Debicella (R)
State Senator: Bob Duff (D) Incumbent
State Representative: Joanne Romano (R)

[#CriminalizeSobriety]

Same as Wormyguy, except Republican for my State Representative and Question 1. I also wrote-in Morgan for an unopposed race.

Is this news?

One of my co-workers who constantly bitches about hating the people in power and hating politics went and voted for Patrick (and presumably, straight-Democrat.) Something's in the water up here.

[Obnoxiously Slutty Girly Girl]

Governor: Andrew Cuomo (D)

Lame.

[Phony Moderate]

Governor: Andrew Cuomo (D)

Lame.

Compelling.

[tpfkaw]

I don't understand why anyone would vote for a candidate whom they don't like the most and has a 100% chance of winning.  If you like Andrew Cuomo more than any other candidate in the 2010 NY-Gov slate, you're a bad person.

[Eraserhead]

I guess I'm a bad person then. Something about the Green didn't sit right with me and the rest of the candidates were pure comedy acts. I was a bit tempted to do the RI2DH joke vote but I had enough friends who were doing that already. As I said in other threads, I'm shocked he only got 1% of the vote.

[5280]

Governor - Tom Tancredo (ACP)
Senate - Ken Buck (R)
Congress - Stephen Bailey (R) CO-7

[MasterJedi]

Straight Republican this time, except for one democrat running unopposed. Dems haven't given me a reason to vote for them since Kohl faced that joke Lorge.

[Franzl]

Governor: Pat Quinn (D)
AG: Steve Kim (R)
Sec. of State: Jesse White (D)
Treasurer: Dan Rutherford (R)
Comptroller: Judy Baar Topinka (R)

Senate: Mark Kirk (R)
House (IL-12): Rodger Jennings (G)

Republican for Madison Co. Treasurer & Recorder, Democrat for Sheriff (amazingly, all three won)

NO on the recall amendment.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Straight Republican right down the line. And voted for a bunch of Conservatives for the NC courts.

[Badger]

I don't understand why anyone would vote for a candidate whom they don't like the most and has a 100% chance of winning.  If you like Andrew Cuomo more than any other candidate in the 2010 NY-Gov slate, you're a bad person.

So 2/3 of NY are bad people?

Oh, and I voted for candidates that lost every contested race. At least the local levies for the senior citizens support service and the town library passed.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Governor: Mark Dayton (DFL)
US House: Keith Ellison (DFL)
State Rep: Karen Clark (DFL)
State Senate: Linda Berglin (DFL)
Secretary of State: Mark Ritchie (DFL)
State Auditor: Rebecca Otto (DFL)
Attorney General: Lori Swanson (DFL)

All won. (though Dayton hasn't been officially called yet.)

[tpfkaw]

So 2/3 of NY are bad people?

Hmm . . . more like 3/3.
