Seems to be okay now.

Up to the Supreme Court now to strike down DOMA.

I suspect the Supreme Court will take the 50 state route next month. If I am wrong I think this will be the map the day after Election day 2016:

Just so awful. Thoughts and prayers to all those in affected.

I support the bill currently as written.

That what I did. Those names are who the State of VA would have gone for in those elections.
Unless you're asking if the people of WV would have voted differently if they were in VA the whole time. That would be trickier to figure out.

Not on the list, But..

Democrats: Houston (But Dallas would be about the same.)

GOP: Denver

They're trying to wash us away. They're trying to wash us away.

Thank you Minnesota.

Bush had roots in New England so I think there's a good chance it (Vermont) would go for him over Bentsen

Okay, I have an idea. I propose the Althing vote on names with PR-STV style. So lets get a vote on:

Regional Komissaer Re-Name Ballot:
[1 ] Archduke of The Althing
[ 2] Regional Komissioner
[ 3] Father of Nations
[ ] Write-In__________________

You have as long as it takes to get all three of you to vote.

Mississippi.

Passed by the voters on November 6, 2012. The first state to do so.

And don't let anyone from Maine tell you otherwise.

I guess it comes down to which State certified its results first.

I was going by CNN calling us first on election night.

Passed by the voters on November 6, 2012. The first state to do so.

And don't let anyone from Maine tell you otherwise.

Happy Birthday Phil.

You as well, Bella.

The one that doesn't hurt.

SSM hurts the baby Jesus.

Not that that fact stopped me from voting for it of course.

I never went on Intrade so I don't know how they posted numbers. So I'll just post what the Persons % chance of victory was on the day in question

1912- Wilson 70% TR 25% Taft 5%
1936- FDR 85% Landon 15%
1948- Dewey 65% Truman 34 % Wallace 1%
1960- Nixon 53% Kennedy 47%
1968- Nixon 55% Humphrey 44% Wallace 1%
1976 Carter 54% Ford 46%
1980 Reagan 55% Carter 44% Anderson 1%
1992 Clinton 68% Bush 25% Perot 7%

O'Malley. Home state loyalty and all that jazz.

I agree that whatever we do the names must have actual letters.

Does Rice make it to November 4 without having to come out of the closet?

I know the Court isn't supposed to be effected by the news of the day. But as they watch 3 states legalize marriage equality in the span of two weeks I could see them having 2 thoughts:

1. The states are doing fine with this on their own. We don't need to issue a far reaching ruling.

2. We can't have a checkerboard map on this issue. We have to go with the 50 state solution.
