Something Not About Ned or Joe In The CT Primaries |
|
Notice the vote count difference between the Republican and Democrat sides?
At the moment about 46,000 votes have been cast in Democratic Senatorial race, by contrast only about 350 Republican votes have been cast for a house seat. Its as if no Republicans came out to vote at all.

3. the woman in the R house race is a real looney |

basically insulted the religion of the Republican endorsed candidate saying it was not a good enough religion to be the Republican nominee (or something to that effect)

5. We laughed about it here...no one I knew realized there was a GOP primary! |
|
When I got to my precinct, I started to walk into the closest empty voting booth and the tender stopped me and said, "No, that one is for the repubican primary only." "What repubican primary? I didn't know there was one!" I laughed. So did the poll workers. "Nobody does."
Apparently that's true, which will be great for Ned!
