It was a GREAT election night!

It was NOT a good election day for the far right as they really took it on the chin.

After Jennifer Schilling stepped down (after winning a Republican recall) Jill Billings CRUSH the Republican candidate in Wisconsin for the Assembly. VICTORY

In Maine a Koch Bro Republicans wanted to repeal the right for same day registration for the right to vote with same day registration. Oddly the Republicans handed out fliers saying a vote against the Republicans was a vote FOR "lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender" groups. (I actually saw one of those fliers).

The voters voted 60% to keep same day voting! VICTORY

In Kentucky the Democrats won Governor and Attorney General VICTORY

OHIO - WELL DONE!! John Kaich (the Walker of Ohio) and his SB 5 which stripped collective bargaining rights from workers was CRUSHED!!!!! VICTORY

Mississippi - fetal conception personhood amendment went down surprisingly hard in Mississippi. The Republicans finally found an anti-abortion tactic so extreme it was crushed in a state wide referenda in a deeply dark Red Confederate state like Mississippi. his Amendment might potentially have resulted in a criminal investigation every time a woman miscarried a fertilized egg.

it was defeated 42% YES 58%

Mitt Romney endorsed the Voter ID Law in Maine, SB 5 in Ohio, and the odious fetal personhood Constitutional Amendment in Mississippi and all three were crushed by the voters.

The Republicans/TeaBaggers/Conservatives/Koch Brothers were routed lastnight in the North-East, the Mid-West, the Deep South and the West.

OK - back in reality a couple more shots from Monday - this first one is of the United States Sugar Company in Madison.   My shots are actually pretty colorful but I had to get this one out of the way.



And here is another shot of Olbrich Gardens.

  2. True - it was also a rebuke of Romney Care which is basically the same.
