hehe I always wonder what happens to all the loser side's magazines, like in sports when both teams in the final game or W/E have their "World champions" shirts all done up, where do those end up

I would be really interested in getting my hands on the Trump one. It's basically a Philip K. Dick conceit

Fellow new jersey voters, what are you guys voting for question 1 and question 2?

I already read the ballotpedia pages but I honestly don't know enough about either one to make an informed decision yet, looking to hear arguments from people I largely agree with.

1 - the gas tax funds? Infrastructure mainly. We need it badly, our educational facilities are already very good.

2 - Would vote no mainly to help AC area, as North Jersey already has a huge economy based off of NYC. But biggest pop'n is up there, so it'll get voted in no matter what.
 
I think she was supposed to do it at the Convention Center but so many people are there she's going to do it outside at Independence Hall.

Not sure. My friends are outside at a cafe down the street. They said it's like the Phillies World Series Parade from 2008 all over again.

tons and tons of people.

And of course Bruce Springsteen is there making it more nuts.
 
what are the questions... If it is about more casinos... Then it is a stern no.

1st:

Do you approve amending the Constitution to permit casino gambling in two additional counties in this State? At present, casino gambling is allowed only in Atlantic City in Atlantic County. Only one casino in each of the two counties would be permitted. Each casino is to be located in a town that is at least 72 miles from Atlantic City. The amendment would allow certain persons to apply first for a casino license.

"A yes vote supports allowing the state legislature to pass laws allowing for two additional northern counties to each have one new casino, thereby ending four decades of casinos only being permitted in Atlantic City.

A no vote opposes this amendment to establish additional casinos in New Jersey. "

2nd:

Do you approve amending the Constitution to dedicate all revenue from the State motor fuels tax and petroleum products gross receipts tax to the Transportation Trust Fund?

This amendment would provide that an additional three cents of the current motor fuels tax on diesel fuel, which is not dedicated for transportation purposes, be dedicated to the Transportation Trust Fund. In doing so, the entire State tax on diesel fuel would be used for transportation purposes. The entire State tax on gasoline is currently dedicated to the Transportation Trust Fund and used for transportation purposes.

The amendment would also provide that all of the revenue from the current State tax on petroleum products gross receipts be dedicated to the Transportation Trust Fund. In doing so, the entire State tax on petroleum products gross receipts would be used for transportation purposes.

This amendment does not change the current tax on motor fuels or petroleum products gross receipts.

"A "yes" vote supports this proposal to dedicate all revenue from gas taxes to transportation projects.

A "no" vote opposes this proposal to dedicate all revenue from gas taxes to transportation projects."


edit: I also can't find any solid info on my board of ed members (doesn't even mention their party) or my county (Union) question

The only things I'm set on are HRC for President, Peter Jacob for Congress and all dems for county freeholders.
 
probably, if you go don't forget your white hoods
Pff, please... I don't need that, I just take my giant wooden "t". Stands for Trump, of course. Anyone have some gasoline???


On a more serious note, Bill Clinton is rocking it right now. I love this guy

EDIT2: Oh snap, Michelle Obama spotted! :D
 
Well, just got into an extreme fight with my mom and grandpa over the NFL kneelers, Black Lives Matter and what not. Didn't get anywhere except pissed off and my girlfriend leaving afterwards, telling me its extremely hard to love me right now when our beliefs are totally different (aka whether NFL kneelers are disrespecting the country).

Fuck you politics. FUCK. YOU.

I mean, that's a pretty telling moment in a relationship, as far as I'm concerned.
 
I voted yes for the devils medical lettuce in Florida and yes to the solar panel thing. No idea if voting yes for the solar thing was good, but im not expecting medical marijuana to pass in FL if it needs 60%
 
"C'mon now talk about it!"

Lol. Obama and this one philly guy that keeps speaking up during his speech need to do an snl skit together.

You had to vote no on Amendment 1. You are letting the electric companies win.

The wording got you huh? The amendment was to price control the power coming out of houses from solar panels.
 
Obama is the best hype-man any Presidential candidate hopeful could ask for.

He really is. He, and Michelle, have done amazing work in building Hillary up for the crowds. Between them, and her consistency with staying on message, she's run a pretty spectacular campaign when all is said and done. I'm looking forward to tomorrow with confidence.
 
I didn't read it, I just voted yes. I'm guessing a lot of people will do the same and thinking yes is good

I figured that'd be what most people did when they read it. It's what I hate about referendums, the people who write the referendum can spin it however they want.
