2010 Elections

Hey everyone, 

It's been a nice long while since I posted anything. Just thought I would write on the upcoming 2010 election season. Nov. 2nd of 2010. Yes I know it is a way off but ready yourselves now, it seems that most of America is now getting worked up over health care enough to actually do something. VOTE THESE CONGRESS CRITTERS OUT!!!!!!

Now as you know I am very conservative (basically a libertarian only not as extreme) thus most everyone who is in a seat in the senate now is on my vote them out list. At the very least we can get Diane Feinstein out of office.

My purpose in this is to attempt to inspire everyone who is able to VOTE!!! Each and every vote does count. The only other candidate that I know of running against Feinstein is Richard Mountjoy. He seems alright up front, although in my opinion anyone is better than Feinstein at this point.

Either way, regardless of what I believe and think anyone old enough vote! A single vote can do much. Last article I saw about Feinstein on her reelection she was not worried about it at all. Please, surprise her and throw her out, she's done enough damage.

For those of you who do not believe that every single vote counts, look at this from declareyourselfnow's blog

1868 – ONE VOTE prevented President Andrew Johnson from being impeached.

1955 – ONE VOTE elected the mayor of Huron, Ohio.

1916 – ONE VOTE in each California precinct re-elected Woodrow Wilson to the Presidency over Charles E. Hughes.

1960 – ONE VOTE per precinct made John F. Kennedy the President over contender Richard Nixon.

1962 – ONE VOTE per precinct determined the winners for Governor in the states of Maine, Rhode Island, and North Dakota.

1977 – ONE VOTE determined in a recount, decided that Robert Emond won the seat for Vermont State Representative over Sydney Nixon.

1984 – ONE VOTE elected a Monroe County, Florida commissioner.

1999 – ONE VOTE per precinct elected Leslie Byrne to the Virginia Senate.

2000 – 237 VOTES in Florida resulted in the election of George W. Bush to the Presidency.

2002 – 5 VOTES elected Dan Sparks to the Minnesota State Senate.

In most cases it is one vote that decided the election result


Hope this shows people the need to vote out our current congress critters
