I'm sure that precinct was for busy supernaturals voting absentee. "Well, let's see, I'll be harrowing some dimension on Election Day. But I was born in Massachusetts Bay Colony before 1787, and my last terrestrial residence was Fort Saint Anthony, so... I'm eligible to-- wait. Did I register so I could vote for Humphrey? Oh, I'm sure I did." The ballot will materialize in the lake sometime before the end of the century.

Amanda is probably not off finding true love. M has to hook her up with some hot ghosts.

There was, at one time, a North Carolina Congressional district that was a hundred and sixty miles long and maybe a hundred yards wide for most of its length - the width of the I-85 right-of-way... (District 12, 1992)

True. That's probably why they lost the election at the end of the Cretaceous to the mammals.

And then the mammals voted to discontinue funding for the Earth Crossing Asteroid watch,,,

That wasn't what i called it.

If you do a right-click and read the address, it's just "district.png". Anyway, i would have had to spell it out, since you can't use asterisks in file names...
