About this site About the J-School With Signs and Soup, Floridians Run Old-Fashioned Politics By Gavin Tachibana Battle of the Signs TAMPA - When Mark Loren spotted enemy headquarters stationed in Tampa, the 42-year-old tile contractor sensed his duty. He planted himself on the sidewalk directly across the street from the Gore-Lieberman billboard that loomed above, and undertook an old Tampa tradition: sign-waving. Loren grabbed a Bush-Cheney placard from his pick-up truck, hoisted it in the air with a wooden stake and waved at passing motorists. "Hey, yeah!" he yelled to honking supporters, flashing a giddy grin. "This is the first time I've done this," said Loren, who lives in a Tampa suburb. "It's a riot." Come election time, sign-waving enthusiasts are as sure as sunshine in this central Florida city. Every candidate -from president down to county commissioner-seems to have troops willing to brave humiliation. But this year, the presidential posters are being waved with extra vigor. The state of Florida is crucial to winning the election and the deciding factor will be central Florida, from Orlando to Tampa, pundits say. In these cities, voters know each ballot counts. They will make the difference in electing Gore, who some Floridians call "a phony" and "an alien," or Bush, "the lying drunk."

But that was before I found out it must be the most ass-backwards state in the union. They even shaped the state as what it is doing to the country - totally dicking us over. Missouri took 140 extra years to abolish slavery and elected a dead guy as a senator, but it's Florida that's holding up the country. We can register for classes, bid on Ferraris, and make long-distance calls on the web, but the only way to vote seems to be in a giant punch block-based booth with a huge red lever. When it was my turn, I wasn't sure if I needed a number two pencil or a pair of ruby slippers. Is CNN the worst news organization in the world?

Massachusetts Bishops Urge Catholics To "Stand For Life" by Voting For Candidates "Who Stand With Us" Embargoed till October 20, 2000 OCTOBER 20, 2000 BOSTON, MA – The Bishops of the four Roman Catholic dioceses in Massachusetts have issued an election statement calling on Catholics to exercise their "moral obligation" to vote and to recognize the "absolute centrality" of the protection of human life when choosing candidates on Election Day, Tuesday, November 7. Faithful Citizenship in Massachusetts : "It is our responsibility to vote for candidates who will promote life and the culture of life over the culture of death." The statement emphasizes that support of abortion and euthanasia by any candidate "is always wrong and can never be justified." Besides abortion and euthanasia, the Bishops see parental choice in education, affordable health care, and protection against violence as election issues particularly relevant this year. The Bishops, representing the Archdiocese of Boston and the Dioceses of Springfield, Worcester, and Fall River, urge Catholics "to become informed about the candidates and the issues so that our choices will be based on the truth and will reflect the principles of our faith and our nation."

Division of Business and Economics University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Stevens Point, WI 54481 Special Report: Election 2000: A Preview Edward J. Miller Department of Political Science and the Center for the Small City University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point The quadrennial exercise in American democracy is upon us. By the time we get to the November election, we will have seen and heard all the ads, suffered through innumerable primaries and watched the hoopla of the conventions in Philadelphia and Los Angeles. Despite our weariness with the process, the presidential election is important because the president is the central figure in setting the domestic policy agenda and on the world stage. Who is elected president and the party majority in the Congress are important, but so are the interpretations that come out of the electoral process. What the winner perceives the voters are saying is as significant as who wins. At times though there have been misperceptions, as revealed in national voter studies. However, these misperceptions have guided our policy makers. Presidential Nominations: Yesterday and Today Party leaders were disturbed by the trend in primaries. Therefore the Democratic Party created superdelegates who were party leaders in each state. The purpose was to ensure that the winning candidate receives support of the party leaders. Although we have not had a brokered convention because of these delegates, they do give the front runner, especially an incumbent, a significant advantage.

Kelley Ross for State Assembly; the results of November 7, 2000, are: District 40: 100.0% (188 of 188) precincts reporting as of 2:29 PM December 2, 2000 * Bob Hertzberg Democrat 70,463 70.3 Kyle Hammans Republican 22,808 22.7 Kelley L. Ross Libertarian Not much has changed here from previous elections except that the Democrats get increased majorities. Hertzberg went to 59% in 1996 to 68.8% in 1998 and now to 70.3%. The LA Times seems to be correct in this respect, that California is drifting to the Left. Hopefully they will be sufficiently emboldened to go ahead and turn the State into Cuba, then, when the economy tanks, people will think better of this. As it is, this seems to be a continuing trend from the 90's, that the electorate gets drawn back more and more strongly to the failed devices of socialism. I actually got a few more votes than in 1996, but the total as a percentage has declined.

Election 2000 or the "Coup of 2000" The Great Republa-scam, Republican-Double-Standard or How to steal an Election from the People: [Bush will be the most illegitimate sitting President in US history. He was selected by the Court, placed in office without a mandate, the popular vote or the support of over half the nation. This result was a grand crime against democracy, and it was committed by the very candidate whose overriding campaign claim was that he could be trusted. Bush is illegitimate; his presidency will always be marred by that irrefutable fact. Historically speaking, the ramifications of what happened will show a real blight on our democratic and judicial processes. There will forever be an asterisk next to the name of George Walker Bush. His appointment by the Supreme Court was a travesty of Justice. That is only if the Bush administration doesn't manage to legally "quash" all of these investigations too. ] Here is a rather germaine quote for the Presidential Election of 2000 (one the Republicans are trying to delude the entire United States by implementing) Something therefore always remains and sticks from the most impudent lies.... The size of the lie is a definite factor in causing it to be believed."

Election 2000: The Battle in Boston Debate Talking Points or 'How I Kicked His Butt and Got Elected' Current polling shows a tight race between George "Wildman" Bush and Al "The Hitman" Gore. In fact, no presidential race has been this close since the Kennedy-Nixon race of 1960 the first year that televised debates were shown and had a demonstrable impact on the election. (In fact, Kennedy's relaxed showing contrasting with Nixon's sweaty, shifty-eyed performance was one of the two key factors that handed him the late-night election win in 1960; it also helped a lot that half of the residents of Cook County cemeteries in Chicago miraculously rose from the dead just long enough to cast a ballot in Kennedy's favor forty years ago.) So EVOTE.COM did a little polling of its own, and put together a panel of political consultants and political debate coaches to preview the main debate points which both teams are no-doubt drilling into the heads of their respective champions. talking points talking points talking points talking points Is it tomatoe or tomatah?
