I wasn't sure with your governor if the state had gone rightward. So happy to hear that's not the case. I used to go to Monhegan Island sometimes as a kid and lived in Vermont, even hitchhiked through Maine a couple of times and really love the state. I think Ohio is in the bag and while I am worried about tricks at least they are on it, 2000 incidents already addressed by the Obama team, and so many exit polls will make it difficult to grab. Also Nevada seems sure now, it's nerve wracking but much less this week than last! Ed had a a guest yesterday, the Rep. from Ohio who said she's not that worried about the voting machines because they've been certified. fingers crossed!
