Ask a ScienceBlogger

Category: Politics
Posted on: November 3, 2006 9:52 AM, by Coturnix

This week's questions in the Ask a ScienceBlogger series:

What's the most important local political race to you this year (as a citizen, as a scientist)?

There are two places here in which representatives of a reality-based community can replace mysoginist, homophobic cavedwellers:

NC - 8: Larry Kissel (D) vs. Robin Hayes (R)
NC -11: Heath Shuler (D) vs. Charles Taylor (R)

But it is really the sum of all local races that is important this year, and it appears that many voters understand that the Tuesday election is really a national election, much more than local. What is neccessary is to divide the Government again, so the "we make reality" crowd is forced to face reality again.
