It's Time

I'm sure some of y'all have noticed: I have not been talking about politics. This is kind of a shocker.


Honestly, I dropped out of paying attention to the news about 3 months ago. I have so much going on in my life that I needed to focus on my mental health before worrying about the news. Yada, yada, yada


So, now things are in motion where I want them to head in my life....IT"S TIME FOR PRIMARIES!


Oh, I'm so excited. Since, I'm behind I went surfing the web to find a straight and easy cut down of what is going on. I'm a spreadsheet type of gal. Seriously. I even put my animals shot records in a spreadsheet. So, of course I went looking for a spreadsheet set up of all the candidates and the primary projected winners. I couldn’t find anything. Now how in the hell am I supposed to be able to compare candidates if I can't draw my eye along a row and column comparing ideas and platforms?


So, in the next couple of months I'm going to try and devise a clear cut candidate spreadsheet. In the meantime, here's to keep track of the primary winners. I found the schedule from the National Conference of State Legislatures' website. I'm just adding on the projected winners as we go along. I'll post it right here for now, until I can find a good link. Of course I will let you know where I'll post, and my thoughts on the winners. Yeah Politics!
