DAE think reddit is [le]terally the WORST SITE EVER? LOL UPVOTES TO THE LEFT.


Jerk harder. This site isn't even close to /r/politics circlejerk.

Funny because Romney is actually winning the popular vote.

I don't think all the votes were counted yet. But yeah, it does seem to have the current popular vote. It's interesting actually. Maybe now we'll ditch the system since it will make the other party mad.

Keep telling yourself that. You are going to have to live with it. lol On the plus side he couldnt do much worse than the past 4 years...well lets hope he doesnt.

Shouldn't you be happy? Republicans still have the majority of Congress, slowing down the progress of American law for everyone.

I've spent a grand total of five minutes on reddit, so I'm not really sure as to how I should take this :\

West Coast votes are just starting to come in. Obama's closing the gap, as well.

These were my thoughts.

Why the hell are people saying Romney won the popular vote when not all the votes are counted? Jesus.

Repubs everywhere:

Even if Romney won the popular vote, wouldn't it be a little bit of a double standard considering Gore won the popular vote during the 2000 election?

Obama is now leading the popular vote.

This has been a thoroughly exciting election.

And also: food for thought.

Nate Silver fucking nailed it.

Also, I was working at the polls from 6 AM - 9 PM (opens at 7, closes at 8). We got 93 voters in our precinct.

Not a busy day by any means.

Unfortunately, I'm only 17 so I can't vote, but I would have voted for Obama. Romney is just... well, I don't agree on most of his policies. Obama isn't the greatest guy ever, but compared to Romney, he's a breath of fresh sanity.

"I'm moving to Canada"

Okay. I really don't get this. When Democrats say that, I nod and go, "Okay, that makes sense. Kind of."

When Republicans say that, I get incredibly confused.

Isn't Canada the country with:

• No time restriction on abortions
  
• Gay marriage
  
• Universal health care
  

???

Washington approves marijuana

All I have to on this matter is

 Spoiler

Washington approves marijuana

Speculation about the effects of marijuana legalization

And they're also pretty close to passing same-sex marriage with Maryland and Maine.

I voted yes on SSM and Marijuana.

Comedy gold material for days on end.

This is why I love elections.

The economist article talks as if every single mexican grew their own pot to sell to the US, however it does says few of us actually smokes it.

And it is also forgetting the fact that at least 40% doesn't even comes from Mexico, but more to the south.


I'm happy Obama won. PLEASE, make the goverment-religion relationship the U.S. has go away.
