I live in Texas and I'm voting for Kerry. I'm a silly dreamer. I know that there's a 99.9% probability Bush will carry the state. Still, I'll vote for Kerry.
And yet, in spite of the odds, I believe in the electoral college. I agree that states with smaller populations must have an equitable voice in Federal elections.
I also have hope in the possibility that my state will be completely fed up with that transplant from Maine who pretends to be a cowboy. Because if they are as fed up as a Texan should be, the majority of the state will vote for Kerry. Then all 34 electoral votes go to the better candidate.
I've seen elections turn around. I know it ain't over till it's over. Voter registration is at an all-time high, even in Texas.
Things change.
