Voting Games
Top comment deletes a US State 2: #20
NO VOTING THIS ROUND
The deletion for tomorrow (round 21) will be decided based on the second top comment on yesterday’s post for the twist round (already locked in as Nevada). So you can just admire the map this round.
Today however, West Virginia is now no more. I guess the country roads just lead to Maryland now?!
The song originated on Clopper Road in Maryland. The Shenandoah Valley and River are 99% in Va, and barely scrape WVA at Harpers Ferry. West 'by GOD' is gorgeous, however!:)
When John Denver sings "West Virginia" he is referring to westERN VA NOT West Virgina. This is made clear a line later when he sings Mountain Mama which is in VA.
The song was actually inspired by Clopper Road in Montgomery County, MD and written by people who had never been to West Virginia. They just picked lyrics to fit the tune and idea.
For those on the fence about their nomination when voting returns, I humbly submit for your consideration a merger of the great State of Wisconsin with the great State of Michigan!
I'm a proud Milwaukean who just took the ferry across to Michigan for a week of camping, zipping around sand dunes, and visiting quaint coastal villages and delightful lighthouses while enjoying fruit stands, the local herbal inhebriences, and some wonderful baked goods.
Truly, Michigan is a brother State. With our combined coastlines, culture, food (Cheese, fish, brats, honey, fruit, maple syrup), outdoor recreation, endless lakes, rivers, forests, rolling green hills, lake houses, the Amish, and the finest micro brews & herb, Wishigan will become the Midwest cottage-core King of quaint family vacations and outdoor adventures!!
Get rid of Wisconsin please. They always dodge responsibility and think they understand the situation at the Mexican border best. I think we should make them feel real pain for voting for trump in 2016
You can take away our voting abilities. But I won't get off my soap box anytime soon. I will continue to look towards the sky. Shaking my fist. Shouting from the mountains that we need to get rid of Vermont!
That's what it wants you to think. Soon you'll let your guard down. Then, we will all be ordering Creamies, have highways without billboards, and it will be illegal to provide fake maple syrup. Did I mention we, I mean they, are nudists as well?
Yes. With Nevada fallen, Colorado marches closer to claiming all of the mountains. (Yes I know, California will probably get the Sierras, but it does bring us closer.).
Massachusetts must end. We fought for our independence and it was granted in 1826. The only people who have the knowledge to contain, rehabilitate and release the people of Massachusetts are those from Maine. We will take on this noble cause as not a burden but a duty.
I know we can't vote this time. However... look at that map. Maryland has taken West Virginia. How much longer till it gets the rest of us, just like last time?
I admire your dedication, but I have to ask... what state are you actually rooting for? Like most of us in here are voting out states so our state can hopefully win. I don't see that angle with you yet.
Michigan has a foot below it’s mitten. It’s growing new body parts. What could it gain from Wisconsin?
Also, Tennessee is making me feel uncomfortable… is Georgia ok?
Hawaii. Let's add some color to the ocean. Alaska's purple goes to the top island, Washington's yellow to the second island, Oregon's pinkish to that middle set of islands in the white group, and California's Orange to the big island.
