Dems sweep election

There was indeed an Obama coat tail effect with today's pumpkin chunking. Democrats won and so did Republican who are former Democrats, as in the case of Jane Hughes Redding. And it appears that voters feel they have more power on the local races. As we're seeing in national news, races were tight and a lot of voters came out, but the majority opted to stay the course. For the first time, we didn't have an pumpkins sailing to the far right or left. They all opted to ride the fence, staying in the middle of the road, perhaps to capture the Independents, youth and Latinos. Whatever the reason, here are the results in feet:

Obama 182 feet
Romney 146 
Biden 194
Ryan 220 - signaling this man may have a political future

NC Gov
McCrory 251.5
Dalton 256

NC Lt. Gov.
Forest 152
Coleman 268

US House
Ellmers 224
Wilkins 297

NC House 
McNeill 202
Parker 251

NC Supreme Court
Ervin 276
Newby 294 

Wilkins 201
Redding 219

Did Big Bird fly? Yes, for a short distance. Just like a NASA rocket, he separated from his missile and flew a distance on his own.

Will sequestration have a huge impact on America? According to the cushaw squash which was tossed, no, there won't be much impact.
