Reverend Billy also got a lot of coverage because his campaign was entertaining and uplifting, with many hilarious moments.

Finally, Ravenstal in Pittsburgh, Democrat mayor, wins with 55%. Sorry third party losers.
All further comments will be made in the Election Night thread, if I decide to continue.

It’s ok Ross, I don’t blame you, and thanks for all your work here. It does show, however, that the candidates who get the most coverage in the third party blogosphere aren’t always the ones who do better in elections.

The John Murphy coverage was just because I was working on his campaign. He did place third, though… out of four. And he got a few thousand more votes than when he ran in 2006.

Fuck, Corzine lost. No mention of precious Daggett and Kaplan, no no no. They refused to take Milnes and I at our word that public press conferences for innovative strategies would provide them a victory. Read it and weap, losers.

PLAS = Overly simplified strategic concept for simple minded people

Strategies which fail to take into account who the candidate is and their positions and views on the issues are LOSERS.

People who think that 13% of all votes are Libertarian in nature (and 13% Progressive/Green) are Losers who make up stats.

People who think Robert Milnes did something special or prophetic by stating the obvious,
“told you you would lose. I told you so….Other than that, nice article.”
are Delusional LOSERS.

Oh yes, forgot about the conservative. I still had a good hunch though that Billy wouldn’t be in third place. Reminds me of when there was so much coverage of John Murphy last year and he wasn’t nearly one of the most successful independent candidates.

Where are you getting the results for that?

Actually, Rev. Billy is currently in 4th, with 3rd place occupied not by a lib or socialist, but Conservative Stephen Christopher, who I believe ran on an anti-abortion platform. That’s one hell of a wedge issue.

Well, idiot Thomson conceeded too soon as the projections came in too early (aka Florida 2000). However, we do know that the third party candidates combined are getting what, like 3%? Wouldn’t it be funny if the libertarians and socialists beat Reverend Billy?

Back on topic, god damn Bloomberg won according to MSNBC. I tried to get Democrat Thomson to endorse the pro-pot anti-pot strategy. Catholic Trotskyist and Milnes tried to get Reverend Billy to endorse the PLAS. Did they listen? No no no. Losers losers losers.
