I’m a political nerd and junkie and sat down to tally my votes in contested elections, party affiliation and the win-loss record. Votes in uncontested races or votes for down-ticket state-wide candidates were not counted, too difficult to do so. In total I have cast votes for 10 Democrats, 4 Republicans and 1 Independent (write-in) in contested races and have endorsed ten winners and five losers.
