I say, old chap.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

I laughed out loud.

This is the guy presenting the BBC coverage:

If the Greens don't have a chance in your electorate it would probably be better spent on Labour

Yeah. I'd vote Labour without hesitation if I were in Otaki, since it'll be close, but Mana looks safe Labour. Still, this election looks dangerous, so I figure it might be best to vote Labour and be on the safe side. And make sure Dad's vote doesn't count.

 

[coolian2]

They've even got a black guy with an English accent in Georgia.

 

[Varitek]

hahahahahhaa

this guy from my uni class fb chatted me, we had an adversarial relationship in which we also hooked up, anyway his friend who i really didn't like nor did i hook up with is apparently in switzerland, an hour from me

we really do need a tears of joy smilie.

if i had it my way we'd probably have 300 or so smilies

My electorate is a 100% wasted vote. The Labour guy is dead last on their list, I don't even know if we have a Greens or NZ First candidate and the two people with a chance to win are from National and Act.

If I'm going to waste my vote, I should just write myself in.

Hahahaha!

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

oooooh the dems are so close to having a senate majority! that's almost as useful as having a dem presidency, and makes me even more confident about the outcome.

Oh man, that's epic fail. I'd probably vote for something totally random like the Socialist Alternative or Free Marijuana just to give that candidate a bit of an ego boost.

The guy on Fox News who said the Democrats picked up some more seats on the senate sounded like he was being sarcastic when he announced it.

 

[Axver]

Wolf Blitzer will have lost all his hair and Sean Hannity will have blown his brains out.

Well, in my dreams at least...

FOAD Hannity.

Speaking of twunts, let's hope Limbaugh and Coulter have heart attacks.

 

[Varitek]

woah cnn has gone all speckledty and county by county

 

[coolian2]

My choices are United Future, Jim Anderton's Progressive, Greens, Kiwi Party, an Independant, Labour, Act and National.


Hmmmmmmmmm.

 

[bono_212]

Hey Hey...um...


why are senators being elected? I"m confused.

 

[Reggo]

FOAD Hannity.

Speaking of twunts, let's hope Limbaugh and Coulter have heart attacks.

YES.

(sidenote: Isn't it a bit redundant combining the terms "twat" and "cunt"?)

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

Hey Hey...um...


why are senators being elected? I"m confused.

because their term's up

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

5 senate seats needed for the majority!

Coulter hates McCain because he's against torture.

Hmmmmmmmmm.

Is it wrong that I am automatically suspicious of any party called the Kiwi Party, nearly as much as I am suspicious of any party with "National" or "Conservative" in its name?

I love how Jim Anderton's Progressives fucking OWNS Selwyn and isn't even a blip anywhere else.

 

[bono_212]

because their term's up

But weren't the senate elections just two years ago?

Or is the senate staggered like Governor and somehow i missed this?

 

[Axver]

Coulter hates McCain because he's against torture.

How has she not already had a heart attack yet, then?

 

[phillyfan26]

Hey Hey...um...


why are senators being elected? I"m confused.

Because some of their six-year terms have ended?

 

[Axver]

But weren't the senate elections just two years ago?

Your Senate is staggered in thirds.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

But weren't the senate elections just two years ago?

Or is the senate staggered like Governor and somehow i missed this?

it's kinda confusing and stupid. a senator has a six-year term, however seats are up for election every two years. so every two years someone's up for reelection.

edit: peef and axver beat me and said it better.

 

[Axver]

YES.

Exactly.

 

[phillyfan26]

Because she's really rich and can get a lot of attention for saying outrageous things no matter who wins?
