Big Con Quote of the Day (UPDATED WITH BONUS ROBERT NOVAK LIE!)

Rick Perlstein's picture

A friend in the labor movement writes:

Just cast my absentee ballot in the DC presidential primary. Voted immediately after Robert Novak, who requested a paper ballot. Alert the media. Or Rick Perlstein. I'm sure there are Big Con readers who'd want to know.

UPDATE: the same source writes:

One last detail: I'd always thought Novak described himself as a registered Democrat -- not that I should trust the source, but I just went to Wikipedia and it says the same.

However, when the poll worker asked him whether he wanted to vote with a paper ballot or by touch screen, he initially misheard her and said he wanted a Republican ballot.

Didn't see who he cast it for, but I am 99 percent certain Robert Novak is now a registered Republican in DC.
