I love my governor!
Just saw this on the Online Beat at the Nation...woohoo! Go Janet Go!

Aside from the fact that canceling elections because someone is expected to win creates a democratic Catch-22, the cost-cutting talk is as bogus as the claim that a clear Bush victory could be divined from all those uncounted ballots from Florida's contested 2000 voting. The savings that can be achieved by canceling an election are small, while the cost to democracy is large. Indeed, when legislators voted to cancel the party primaries in Arizona, <b> Governor Janet Napolitano vetoed the measure and declared, "Arizona can well afford the price of democracy." </b>
