Casting a Wide Net in Stamford
I voted before 7 a.m. today at a school here in Stamford. I didn't have to wait on line before I entered one of the photo-booth sized voting machines, the kind with the reassuringly clanky handle to open and close the curtain and thunking metal levers for votes. No fancy-shmancy high-tech voting in Fairfield County.
Staying with my traditional wide-net approach to voting, I sprinkled my support among Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Concerned Families (or was that Concerned Proleterians? I can't recall), Greens and even an independent or two, I think. Alas, I didn't see any candidates from the Natural Law Party, a/k/a the Transcendental Meditation folks, so I didn't vote for expanded consciousness.
I'm glad this election is done. Yesterday I had to run the gauntlet past four eager beavers distributing literature at the train station in the morning; at night I came home to find four message on voice mail, all recorded pleas for votes, two of them from Bill Clinton.
Can we please put the bitter partisan politics of 2006 behind us now, and finally focus on the bitter partisan politics of 2008?

I was a natural law candidate in 1992 in Fairfield County, thanks for the vote if you cast it this way then, I had 1500 votes
