election night

Charlie spent election night with CNN, his electoral college maps, and a calculator - watching the predictions and results come in.  He is not into politics and actually did not favor either candidate running, but he likes numbers.  And he is intrigued by the process of how our nation elects its leader.  It was fun to watch him engage in the process.  He also has a definite opinion on the electoral college and the two-party system.  He doesn't think it's a good set-up and claims to want to make his own party one day and "fix" the way things are done.  Mostly he just did not like his two choices and was quite upset that he was "forced" to watch it come down to a choice between the two.  But he enjoyed tracking the poll numbers and counting down the race to see who reached 270 votes first.
