USA Presidential Election
I've been following the American elections with great interest. I'm wondering if there is anything special planned in PP for the big day? I guess that would be Wednesday for us.

Yes, results should start coming Wednesday morning at 7 or 8 am and unless it is really close we should know the winner by noon.

I was at Gym Bar last time round - packed with NGO Democrats Abroad types. Dunno about this year - can't get enthusiastic.
I came, I argued, I'm out

I can’t see how it can be close.gavinmac wrote:Yes, results should start coming Wednesday morning at 7 or 8 am and unless it is really close we should know the winner by noon.
The news media is still doing its self-interested, level best to paint this as an open contest, but in terms of winning the Electoral College, Obama holds the same commanding lead in swing states that he’s held since Romney became the presumptive GOP nominee months ago. Even the Senate’s not in play for the GOP anymore. What's to watch?

lol, can we vote from here even? absentee ballot or something?
not that i want to, i'm not nearly informed enough to make such a decision (and am thankful that the electoral college is there for that reason), but i'm just curious on how that applies.

Those who begin coercive elimination of dissent soon find themselves exterminating dissenters. Compulsory unification of opinion achieves only the unanimity of the graveyard.

Meta House is showing the election results at 8am on Wednesday. It's organized by Democrats Abroad but all are welcome. And yes, you can vote from Cambodia but it's too late now, ballots were due at the embassy a week ago.
I'm betting Romney will win. We shall see. I haven't been following this at all, but that's my bet nonetheless.

I just hope the candidates from the minor parties get a lot of votes. Or nobody votes.
I see no difference between the big two.

I'm pretty sure you can vote at the embassy.
