Thank God I was wrong...

...about the election.

I had predicted electoral chaos... weeks of divisive litigation, a repeat of the 2000 debacle, only more so.

As it turned out, the people spoke pretty decisively. And despite the dark scenarios of voter suppression painted by left-wing bloviators, or the dark scenarios of widespread voter fraud painted by right-wing bloviators, the election appears (a few isolated incidents aside) to have been clean and fair.

Whether or not you're happy with the election's outcome, I hope you agree that it's a great relief not to have to deal with the endless legal jockeying that many (me included) had feared.
