PARTY IN THE PLAYGROUND!

Life imitates the Simpsons . . . again.

Someone at Democratic Underground posts a link to a Freeper thread discussing an interesting phenomenon: People are going to the polls to vote for Arnold, but forgetting to vote on the recall!One of them writes:

My neighborhood is comprised of middle-aged to older voters. Judging by the breakdown given to me by the Republican Party (I'm a poll watcher today) the area is predominantly Democrat. The workers said that for the first time they could remember there was a line out the door when they opened this morning! The only thing I'm a little nervous about is with all the Schwartzenegger buzz, people are forgetting to vote YES on the recall. It's the first question on the first page and since Arnie is on the last page people have the tendency of just going right to the page with his name. Even my husband almost forgot. People have been calling the radio shows saying the same thing. A few cried and said they forgot.

Oops! Ironically, our new governor will be Pat Buchanan.

Back on the Simpsons, Bart appeared to have won the race for class president over unpopular brainiac Martin Prince, yet all of his supporters forgot to vote, caught up in the hysteria of a recess party. Martin won the election, 2-0.

I still have no idea how this is going to end up. With 2 million absentee ballots, we may not know for a while...
