Voted Working Families Party as much as possible (i.e., except where there was no candidate on the line, except in the Comptroller's race); these all mirror and count summed with the Democratic line votes for those candidates. Hey, it's a quirk of the NY State system, and generally, the WFP line is as progressive as it gets with any meaningful chance to win.
Was interviewed for (I think) an Asian-language TV station on the way out (the camera had writing in characters I couldn't identify and didn't see well; could have been either Chinese or Korean, both of which have solid constituencies here). As long as they don't mangle my responses (specifically, that we're in for a rough two years if, as expected the Republicans take the House, because they have no real plan for improving the economy, but only for making life easier for corporations at the expense of nonwealthy humans), I'm cool with it. (NOT going back out in the cold to ask which station they're with.)
