The Recall 2 cents

I don't think much of California's Recall law and the circus it's made out of California democracy, but this eye-witness account made me laugh.

I just came back from the polls in Los Angeles. Bad news... long lines. Worse news, an old man surnamed Gomez was in front of me and didn't get that he wasn't allowed to vote since he had already requested an absentee ballot. He was holding the stub for the absentee ballot in his hand and wanted to vote again. I wanted to yell in his ear "Go to Chicago!".
