I have always called these buckyballs, I don't think they are called that.
I watched the final of the presidential debates last night. I also sent in my absentee ballot (admittedly before the debate).
I also do not watch network television or really much television aside from Comedy Central (Daily Show is my best source of news). In a sense I am now outside the election season.
By proxy I have heard about the attack ads, the accusatory writings and the tiny niggling details that saturate the news networks. But I have not seen any of them.
There are also all of the automated callings, or the polls. I have missed out on the those as well since I only have a cell phone.
To top it off I live in a relatively uncontested state (some people don’t vote because of this, that makes me cringe).
I sort of feel left out.
Now I just want the election to be over.
