The losing side will not always claim the winners stole the election. Only when it's by a slim majority; when the nation is split 70-30 or even 60-40, there are no claims of "theft." However, thanks to republican campaign tactics and basically any given political talk show, left or right, 50-50 splits have been the norm for years now.
AFAIK, and i do have a facebook, you can't turn it off. this is problematic a)cause it takes up way too much space on the screen (my pokes are now off to the side. i liked having big "you have been poked" reminders. not to mention that on individual people's profiles it's huge). i like facebook because it lets me keep up with my friends from back home now that we've gone our sorted separate ways.
however, since there's no option to turn it off, it's like you can have a nuclear bomb or no war at all. sort of. not that intense though. but you know what i mean? if i could just get rid of the feed on my profile, i'd be happy. or move it, or something. i don't mind the feature, but it's a bit too detailed. i think it was released too early - early in this case meaning not perfectly to my specifications, you see (: it just doesn't have enough customizeability yet.
