My favorite campaign website

On a lighter note...

While researching judges this afternoon, I came across Hayden Zacky's website, and I must say that he really out did himself.

Another candidate for Superior Court Judge, Deborah Sanchez, has the kind of website one might expect. But not Hayden...

Hayden's site may not have a Flickr photo gallery on the home page like our Governor, but he has something better: sound effects! (make sure you roll your mouse over the fancy menu bar.)

You're slick Mr. Zacky! Check it out.

Election Freakout

Ok, so the Dems are winning nationally, and that's great and all, but as of 10:25pm, Prop 90 is winning.

Proposition - 90 Eminent Domain - California 7736 of 25231 Precincts Reporting

	Name	Votes	Pct
	No	1,314,840	50.02
	Yes	1,313,614	49.98

That stinks. Stinks, stinks, stinks. I don't think people really understand how bad it will be if Prop 90 passes.

I know some Democrats are doing well, but if you look at the CA race, just as many seats are going to the GOP. Looks like McClintock will win by about 2.5%...but don't worry, the Green Party candidate got almost 3% of the vote! Okay, so it's not exactly the Green's fault, but what's wrong with California?

Allegations of Schwarzenegger's sexual assault are swept under the rug in the same breath that voters decide that people convicted of sex crimes should wear GPS tracking devices for the rest of their lives. (In defense of California voters apparent hypocrisy--the sex crimes proposition won't really be effective--it encourages sex offenders to live in close proximity with others of similar pathology, and wastes a ridiculous amount of money on tracking devices that don't prevent offenders from molesting the people they are most likely to take advantage of--family members.)

Proposition - 83 Sex Offenders - California 7911 of 25231 Precincts Reporting

	Name	Votes	Pct
	Yes	1,907,644	70.29
	No	806,146	29.71

Apparently, Californians also want young people to start smoking and don't want the auto industry to ever catch up with China's emissions standards.

Proposition - 86 Cigarette Tax - California 7844 of 25231 Precincts Reporting

Name Votes Pct No 1,479,988 53.84 Yes 1,268,938 46.16

Proposition - 87 Alternative Energy - California 7844 of 25231 Precincts Reporting

	Name	Votes	Pct
	No	1,557,334	56.98
	Yes	1,175,805	43.02

But seriously, the campaign finance prop? Isn't anyone else sick of all the crap we get in the mail before every election? I don't watch commercials anymore, thanks to my DVR, but I hear those are pretty darn annoying too. Why the heck wouldn't we want a cap on election spending?

Proposition - 89 Campaign Financing - California 7769 of 25231 Precincts Reporting

	Name	Votes	Pct
	No	1,990,751	73.91
	Yes	702,861	26.09

All in all, I'm disappointed. Again.
