    and pulled up in a maverick, and a few of the campaign guys in the parking lot shouted "now theres the rear maverick!"

    it was a pretty funny expierence, i took it hoping something like that would happen when i drove it down to the local elementry school

    Wish mine was road worthy enough to have driven mine. But the sheeple elected a new Czar anyway.

    I don't think a "Ford" was running in the election, so no Maverick won

    We have both paper ballots and touch screens. Went last night at 5 and had no wait. In and out in about 7 minutes due to the long ballot.

    We had the punch systems, but the Chad incident back in 2000 made them obsolete.

    I have a black T shirt with Maverick in white letters. Some people have asked me if I am a "Top Gun" movie nut or a Tom Cruise want-a-be. Some people have asked what is a Maverick? I guess they would not know what a Comet T shirt would mean eather. :hmmm:
