Question #1 goes down in flames, 69-31%!!!!!!!

*deep breath*

In less dramatic news, Question #2 (decriminalization of small amounts of marijuana) seems on its way to passage, as does Question #3 (bans dog racing). I'm pleased about these, but I'm *thrilled* that the people of Massachusetts saw through the nasty, greedy, selfish rhetoric and voted to keep the income tax rather than gut state services.

I'm seriously concerned about the flood of dogs that will now land on the rescue network.

Ditto :-(

Those of you who voted to close down the tracks, please also consider donating time, money and/or other resources to your local greyhound rescue.

Ditto again--every time a track closes, greyhound adoption groups get stretched to the max.

Please also consider adopting or fostering.

We already have two (in a NYC shotgun house), so we're full, but...

These are wonderful dogs who deserve a long and happy life.

This? I couldn't agree more :-D

I sympathize. Part of the reason we have only one of our own is so we can have room to foster. It's also the reason I haven't flunked Fostering 101 - I know if I adopt a foster, we won't have room to foster any more. I'm trying to convince my next door neighbor to adopt our current foster....

If I didn't have such an overscheduled life I'd take one, but right now isn't the time :( When I'm done with school and know where I'm going to be, physically and emotionally, then I will definitely consider it since greyhounds are about the only dogs I think I could live with at this point....
