Voting Day
Well, my computer is acting rather funkful, and my shoulder hurts tremendously, so I'll cut to the chase before it shuts down on me and I lose another post.
Today was voting day, and the polls are officially closed, with the ballots being tallied as we... er, type. There was some confusion earlier today about the voting location (in front of Perry, not Song), whether you could vote at snack (you couldn't), and how long the polls were open after school (I was told they would be open until 3:30, but there were some differing opinions on that last bit). Fortunately, I was able to talk to our head of Internal Affairs, Derrick Wu, and get a special PA announcement for everybody. Don't say I don't fight for you.
Well, it's been fun, and I can't exactly change the results at this point, despite certain classmates' suggestions that I slip Byun or Fierro a $20 bill under the stack of ballots. All of the candidates for all positions were outstanding, and I really had to think about my choice for all but one of the races.
I do still have Presidential duties for this administration, so I'm reminding everybody that tomorrow is Saint Patrick's Day. Wear green if you support the Irish Catholics, orange if you support the Protestant Northern Irish, red if you don't want a Spirit Point, and either green or orange if you aren't sure which side you support.
See you after school tomorrow! Come out and support your various favorite candidates!
Today's Helpful Hint From Will: So it's tradition to dine on corned beef (and possibly cabbage) for St. Paddy's Day. But this particular year, Catholics have hit a snag in their traditional feast: You're not supposed to eat meat on Fridays during Lent. However, some bishops are granting dispensations to their diocese for the holiday. But apparently you're not supposed to do that either. So my hint is to enjoy your corned beef tonight. You might get in trouble if you try it tomorrow.

Well, it's a bit late for result projections, but you wouldn't have wanted me to guess anyway. I got just about every race wrong.
