It's election day in Sweden today. I met these volunteers from some of the political parties in Västerhaninge. They were handing out ballot paper to voters. As I took the photo the Mayor came by and commented on the fact that there were mostly women here. The smiling man in the middle representing the Liberal Party had a look at the photo and said that he looked very slim.

I tallied all the election literature I received for Virginia's gubernatorial election today (November 5, 2013). This is a picture of the literature I received - I sense a theme!
Number of election literature mailers I received: 28
That includes 1 letter each from Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton, both urging me to vote for the Democratic candidate (Terry McAuliffe). The one from Hillary only called me "friend," while the one from Michelle addressed me by first name.
2 of the mailers were from neutral parties, just telling me that I voted in 2012, and that they hope I will vote in the 2013 elections too.
1 was a letter from the Democratic party of Virginia, urging me to vote and including a sample ballot for the Democratic ticket (including all the local/downstream races, and to vote no on the local housing referendum).
1 was an ad for an Independent candidate.
1 was an ad for a Women's Workshop on how to get involved in politics with the Democrats leading up to the election (one of the first ones I got).
Of the remaining 20 mailings, 15 of them had only one theme - the Republican candidate, Ken Cuccinelli, is "extreme" and "way out there" - on women's issues in particular. I didn't get a single pro-Cuccinelli mailer.

At an Athens Democrats election night party at the Blue Gator, Athens City Council member Debbie Phillips who is running for State Representative talks talks about how the primary election results are being delayed until later Tuesday night.
Actually these are up all year long.
It's basically a public advertisement of who's running in whatever elections are on at the moment - this is essentially a copy of a ballot paper - well, the second half of a ballot paper, anyway: the first half is to the right of that doorway.
Every candidate or party has a logo which gets painted in place, so you can know who's standing even if you can't read.

WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton ended her historic campaign for the presidency on Saturday and told supporters to unite behind rival Barack Obama, closing out a race that was as grueling as it was groundbreaking.
The former first lady, who as recently as Tuesday declared herself the strongest candidate, gave Obama an unqualified endorsement and pivoted from her role as determined foe to absolute ally.

San Francisco Mtns from Marshall Lake, Flagstaff. That's the "lake" in the foreground -- it's dry this year. It was Election Night 2004, and I camped in solitude in open juniper-pine woodland at a random spot on National Forest land near Flagstaff. It was up over 7100' & the coldest night of my trip (27F when I went to bed), and I built a little fire -- something I seldom do, but the site seemed lightly used and there was plenty of downed wood, so I decided the ecological impact was acceptable. Hopefully that judgement didn't have anything to do with my shivers. :-) Warm feet while camping: a novel luxury! NB: isopropyl rubbing alcohol makes good lighter fluid (necessity is a mother :-) -- as you can see from the snow, the site was pretty damp, & the pine wouldn't burn worth a damn. But I discovered that the twigs of oily juniper lit up nicely).
So I nursed my little fire, and listened to election returns on the car radio until the wee hours, and quietly mourned, while a great horned owl joined in.
