Palin does great job overseeing Alaska elections

[soupkitchen]

So Alaska still hasn't been albe to count up 300.000 votes. Nine days later and Alaska still hasn't been able to sort through 300,000 votes.
Great job, Governor.

1. They have to be thawed out one-by-one.

Be patient.

[Dappleganger]

16. So has Alaska finally taken Florida's place as the voting laughing stock of the US?

Geez, I hope so!

[TheCowsCameHome]

18. Well, they did offer up Sarah Palin.

That speaks for itself..........

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

2. They're still waiting for ballots which will be delivered via dogsleds.

3. Where's Tawd and his snow machine when you need him?

:rofl:

5. haha, Chuck Todd said that this morning.

that Todd Palin was going to bring in the ballots on his snow machine.

8. Oh goodness...did he really?

I don't watch msnbc in the AM...not sure how I feel about having the same thought process as Chuck E. Tawd. ;-)

11. haha

I usually don't watch Morning Joe any more either, but turned it on this morning. Yup, Todd said that, and Joe also tried to use the "Republicans are worried that Franken is getting all these votes now, is the SOS biased?" and Todd just shot it down and said that it was a talking point because the gap was narrowing. Joe looked deflated.

12. Poor deflated Joe!

:rofl:

:nopity:

13. Andrea Mitchell also snarked on Sarah a little bit

and said something like "Don't you know, Joe? It's Sarah's victory tour!"

[City Lights]

14. OMG! That's hysterical!

I didn't think Andrea had it in her.

:rofl:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

9. Funny! :)

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

7. lol! Last night, on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart said that if they won, it would be called

a snow machine, But They Lost! It's a SNOWMOBILE.
:rofl:

[RollWithIt]

6. Actually, lol, that is not entirely untrue....

Several areas of Alaska do not have daily mail service. It can take up to two weeks for absentee mail to arrive.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

10. lol! I heard that and that's why I decided to joke about the dogsleds! :)

4. Alaska always takes a long time to complete its vote count

The results often are final until December. That was the case in previous years, under both Democratic and repub governors. There are plenty of legitimate criticisms to aim at palin. Be careful about lobbing charges that are softballs that the other side can easily rebut.

15. maybe she should outsource counting the ballots to her neighbor

(not Russia) - Canada ... I hear that they count far more ballots in less time, and are more accurate ...

[secondwind]

17. half as many uncounted votes as there are people up there~!
