Overvote

I don't care how many races are won by tight margins or how many polls show this or that Dem so many safe points ahead. There are no safe points. There is no winning by just this much. There is only smashing the opponent with everything we've got and hoping they don't have enough to best us on the counterattack. There is only the Overvote.

The Overvote means that so many citizens vote for the good guys (okay, the ones I want to win) that they overwhelm even the stealing of votes by Republicans with the Diebold machines in their garages or the Republicans with the exceptional Get Out The Vote drive. The Overvote means you never rest on your laurels, you never give an inch, you fight back even when there seems to be a lull, you all get your asses out to the polls and vote vote vote!

The Overvote is the only potential remedy (in time, at least) to this or to this.

Voting in America?

Scandalous.
