I'm not sure how many electoral votes Azeroth has, but it could be a key battleground state.

    I'm not sure how many electoral votes Azeroth has, but it could be a key battleground state.

    I think that Azerothian voter turnout will be extremely low.

    My predicted exit poll results:
    - 55% Ignored the voting booths & farmed HKs instead
    - 25% Didn't make it to the voting booths because they were AFK in the starting area
    - 15% Made it to the voting booth, but instead of going in & voting, they jumped onto its roof and spammed /dance over & over
    - 5% Were too busy repeatedly spamming /bg with "every sucks by me" and "just let them win" to even realize there was an election going on

    Hey, Thrall ain't perfect, but he's a warlord and he'll soon put an end to the war in Crossroads. He's exactly the sort of murderous bastard we need in troubled times like this. And have you seen the floating castle that just showed up outside Thunder Bluff? That's obviously the result of 8 years of failed Alliance rule. You want four more years of that?

    LEEROY JENKINS!

      My vote is for Leeroy because he doesn't get stuck in the gridlock of analysis that paralyzes our leaders. While they are discussing which of their special interests (tanks and healers) will get what earmarks, Leeroy is taking action.
