I don't get it. Seems like a bad pessimistic view either way though.

What a great night for equality. Obama back in office (the first US President ever to support marriage equality), Richard Mourdock and Todd 'Legitimate Rape' Akin lost their elections, Tammy Baldwin is the first the first openly lesbian senator AND marriage equality was passed in 3 out of 4 states :D Woooo!

also, on an unrelated note... Colorado and Washington voted yes.

This. Exactly this.

As for Obama being re-elected... He's better than Romney, but not by much in my eyes.

I wait until I'm of age to vote, I come back from Afghanistan, I vote on my candidate - and it's not counted.
(Absentee votes weren't counted, which is 97% of the military's votes unless your stationed in the state that your a resident of.)

I really don't like politics.

Emma, entire states weren't counted, and most cities affected by Sandy's votes weren't counted either.

In New York and New Jersey, you were given the chance to vote via email. Also, voters could go to any voting station they'd like. So Sandy didn't cause that much of a problem as you'd think. But it did deter voters because of gas rationing, road complications, and just having a bunch of stuff to do.

I can see results for all states so how does that work daggo?

I can see how Sandy was a problem but then as MCT said, provisions were put in place to allow people to vote. also, the areas hit were pretty safe democrat states so even if that lowered turnout, I cant see it affecting the final decision.
