Richard Blumenthal has won the Senate seat from Connecticut. Inexplicably, he was smashed in the head with a metal chair as he ran up for the acceptance
I tried to follow the coverage on Fox News.com, but the drool emanating from the computer threatened to electrocute me.
We would have voted for Jimmy Mcmillan, from the Rent is Too Damn High party, but when we saw him listed on the ballot on the "Rent is 2 Damn High" Party, we deemed it too unprofessional.
Jon Stewart is not as powerful as he thinks he is.
Sign of a shoo-in: I didn't even know Schumer was running until I went to vote.
If the crooked non-lawyer running for Town Justice wins...I will probably do nothing interesting.
Carl Palladino is projected to have lost the race for governor, and now can continue his life as a regular crazy person, instead of as a famous crazy person

I didn't know he wasn't a lawyer, I think I voted for him.
Ha ha...
cute.
Not honest, either: From the JN:
This Editorial Board does not usually endorse candidates in primaries, nor does it usually weigh in on judicial races.
But there's one primary contest that cannot escape our attention: Ramapo town justice.
The seat is now held by appointee David Stein, a Democrat and former Ramapo Town Board member. Republican Noah Weinberg, a former Rockland County Department of Social Services commissioner, has mounted a primary challenge for the Democratic line. On the November ballot, Weinberg is on the Republican and Conservative lines and Stein appears on the Independence and Working Families Party lines.
No matter where his name appears, Noah Weinberg is not judge material, nor has he earned the good faith of the community. How come? Two words: Hyenga Lake.
Bad decisions
Weinberg had served as Rockland's Department of Social Services commissioner for 25 years when he was not reappointed in late 1998. At the time, Rockland County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef said he simply wanted "a new and fresh perspective." In early 1999, however, it was revealed that Weinberg had approved a deal to pay Monsey Rabbi {redacted by FBB} nearly double DSS's usual rents to house social services clients at Hyenga Lake's boarding house on the Clarkstown-Spring Valley border. The conditions on the property were abysmal; scores of health and safety violations included roach infestations, missing smoke detectors, boarded-up windows, crumbling walls, rotted floor planks, exposed wires, broken stoves and leaky pipes.
Soon after, DSS turned up 375 questionable bills submitted by an ambulette company owned by{redacted by FBB}, Noah Weinberg's son. {He} admitted stealing from the state Medicaid system, made restitution and received five years' probation as part of a plea agreement. The transportation contract for the son's ambulette company with DSS was signed by Noah Weinberg.
Denied culpability
Weinberg has denied any wrongdoing. He was not charged with any. Ignorance of such shenanigans , though, is problematic. What kind of jurisprudence could be expected from someone caught so unaware
oh- I voted for stein!. shwu
I knew that about him. Iread the journal news and complain constantly
