I knew it would be the last opportunity I would have to cast a vote for them. And despite the fact he has supported some things I did not, I believe he has done a horrendously wonderful job these last eight years in the face of all the adversity thrown at him by the Republicans. He maintained his dignity and at some times relieved the situation with humor. He is a remarkable man, and his wife and family are beautiful. Overall, this family has represented this Country very well, and I will be sorry to see them go.

OP
They use the same system everywhere in NY, by the way: paper ballots and scanners.

You are wise and level-headed, not prone to celebrity worship, unaffected by fear tactics.

I have had that fear something similar might happen to Maryland since the GOP won the governorship
