you know that weird weird feeling when election day finally arrives you go to your local polling

place only to find that the guy you wanted to vote for has been entirely removed from the ballot

California soon as well because you see just yesterday the Colorado State Supreme Court they

on several previous episodes we've already discussed the lawsuits which have been filed in states
