Hot people vote! Liveblogging Super Tuesday.
I voted this morning on the oldest voting machine ever. The lever was rusted and creaked and if I was extremely old my hand probably would have fallen off trying to pull it, which would mean that I died voting for Barack Obama which is over the top, even for me. There was someone in the booth next to me for at least fifteen minutes, which I assume meant that an extremely old person died in there trying to vote and nobody noticed. Still, it was refreshing not to vote on a touch screen backed by software made by a massive Republican donor.
Pinko, like most credible news outlets, will be “live blogging” news and reaction today. (”Live blogging,” in technical internets terms, just means “I’m going to post a lot,” but it sounds more vigorous.) To make this liveblogging happen, here’s what we need: We need you to send us pictures of yourselves, in particular your naughty parts, in a voting booth. Ideally there would be flesh and a ballot both clearly visible in the photo. OR we need you to send us images you see throughout the day of extremely hot people voting. Other outlets may cover the news; Pinko is concerned with the defining issue of our time: are extremely hot people getting out to vote?
Let’s take this guy for example:
He’s not crazy hot. But he’s clearly well dressed and sinewy. He’s probably wearing American Apparel briefs. Pinko is pleased.
Now, lets take this typical New York voter:
She is well appointed. She’s clearly enthusiastic. But Pinko is concerned by the hand gesture, which has a certain … how do we say this … ZEIG HEIL … quality to it. Not hot.
Email me with ideas, post comments and check back throughout the day. We’ll also be giving some real, actual reactions to things as they unfold. It’s a big day — Chris Rock called us this morning and told us so.
