Election

Take 15mins and look at the following sites and find election results.

Then give your view on the national results and the local results.  Both the candidates and the initiative measures.

Two paragraphs minimum.

Local-
One of the things I am glad that got voted for is the extended smoking ban. I am happy that it is now illegal in all public places. I think that it will help many people to quit smoking. Although some could argue it is a right to the bar owner, I believe it is the right of the people to be able to go places and not have to worry about their health. One thing at the local level that I am disappointed in is the rejection to legalize medical marajuana. In some ways I think it should be legal. The people who want to use it for recreation already are getting it illegally, but the people that need it for health reasons aren't getting it because it is illegal.

National-
One thing I am disappointed about in the national level is that Kristi Noem got voted for. In my opinion, she was mean. I know its the name of the game to do whatever you have to do to win, but it is a turn off for me to hear her bash the other candidates. Whenever I heard her speak, if she was asked a question about what she would do if a certain thing happened, the only thing I heard her say was "I wouldn't do what (whoever) is doing now or would do in the future." She should be able to tell others what she wants to do, instead of bringing up the faults of others.
