I just noticed in my updated Firefox and Explorer browser that the video menu on the right is acting a bit funky. Still works fine in Chrome and my cell phone…(shrug)

Anyway, until I get that figured out, I’ve added a link on the right sidebar to a full episode list.

Happy campaigning!

Hey Drew, I’ve found that the voter ID number can be really helpful when you are dealing with a lot of data in Access, for example, but unless you are doing some serious massaging of the data, I agree with you on that people should just ignore it.
