11/2    I need to drop off my absentee ballot for the Alameda County.  Is
        Fremont the closest Alameda city to Sunnyvale (where I work)?  If so,
        where (URL's?) can I find the closest voting area to drop off my
        ballot?  Thanks.
        \_ Fremont is closest. Give the Registrar a call (510) 663-VOTE (8683)
           for a close polling place.

11/2    California Uber Alles is such a great song
        \_ Yes, and it was written about Jerry Brown. I was thinking this
           as I cast my vote for Meg Whitman. I am independent, but I
           typically vote Democrat (e.g., I voted for Boxer). However, I
           can't believe we elected this retread.
