Does anyone on this board live in her district? I mean, besides me?

Duh

I know you hate Roxbury and all, but we are in Sonia's soon-to-be district.

I don't live there, but I plan on voting for her a few times using my fake registrations.

CALM DOWN!!! It's a joke. The registrations are real. I have multiple personalities.

(tiptoeing away from computer)

I do!

It was nice to cast my vote for Sonia in the primary.

I do too!

By Neal | Tue, 10/28/2008 - 10:02pm

I voted for Sonia too in the primary.. My friend, who supported Wilkerson until this morning, wore his Wilkerson shirt to the bar where he works this evening, tongue-in-cheek, of course...

Does spelling count?

Are Boston election officials obligated to count people who vote for Diane Wilkerson as voting for Senator Dianne Wilkerson?

Intent of the voter is what matters

By Ron Newman | Wed, 10/29/2008 - 8:58am

and since a vote for 'Diane' is pretty obviously a vote for Dianne, it counts. See How to Run for Office as a Sticker or Write-in Candidate and How to Request a Recount for more details.
