We got Election Day off this Tuesday, but how many Columbians actually used the break to fulfill their civic duties? We took a very unscientific poll to find out.
Nursing a hangover due to the previous night’s Phillies victory (either celebratory or depression-induced drinking): 15%
Nursing a plain old hangover: 20%
Finishing that reading you forgot to do for, um, seven weeks of school: 40%
Actually voting: 5%
What election?: 20%
Conclusion: Either Columbia isn’t as politically charged an environment as we thought, or we really like the Yankees
