Civic Duty Done

Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader is pleased to report that he has already visited his local polling station and done his civic duty and voted for the various elected offices being contested on the ballot.

Well to be totally honest he voted in both the contested and uncontested races on the ballot. For some mad reason they insist on putting the uncontested spots on the ballot too. (In case you are wondering your Maximum Leader’s representatives in the Virginia House of Delegates, William Howell, is running unopposed.)

Excursus: Your Maximum Leader once asked Mr. Howell how it felt to be the Speaker of the world’s oldest continually meeting democratic legislature. His response “It is a good feeling.”

So, your Maximum Leader cast his votes. He voted for Mr. Kilgore for Governor, Mr. Bolling for Lt. Governor, and Mr. McDonnell for Attorney General. As both parties are “for” education and roads and “against” crime your Maximum Leader had to move to the second tier issues. In many respects he felt a little guilty for doing so. Afterall the second tier issues are not ones on which there is likely to be any change from the status quo regardless of who is elected Governor. And as your Maximum Leader had noted before, he doesn’t think that either Jerry Kilgore’s or Tim Kaine’s plans for education or infrastructure improvements honestly looks at the costs involved.

Mrs. Villain asked your Maximum Leader what it would take for him to vote for Kaine in the election. Your Maximum Leader responded that if Tim Kaine legally changed his first and middle name to Charles Foster then he would have earned your Maximum Leader’s vote - for cinematic reasons.

In case you are wondering, your Maximum Leader voted against the incumbent county supervisor and against the incumben school board member. While one runs as an independent for county supervisor and school board it turns out that both men your Maximum Leader voted against were Republicans. Your Maximum Leader wonders, does splitting your vote between statewide and local offices count as splitting your ticket? Humm…

Anyho…

If you are a resident of Virginia or New Jersey (or New York City) get out and vote. You’ve got major issues to decide for your locality. Of course you should always vote whenever you are able.

Carry on.
