They just elected the first Muslim to Congress

(Yes, I know he only won the Democratic Primary, but in that district, that's as good as winning the election)

MN has a Republican Governor...that will change in about a month...but we had one of (if not) the highest turn outs for elections in 2004(I think Iraq was higher,but in USA...),and Bush had one of the lowest amount of votes, percentage wise, then most other states(ok...my lack of memorising statistics
is pathetic)....point being...Bush would have lost by a land slide if other states had better turn outs...so,get off your lazy hynes and get out the vote this fall!! !!(except the Republicans...I am pretty sure there is going to be a "Touched by an Angle"marathon vote night.)
