1. Maine voters rejected gay marriage last night, reaffirming that in Maine, the only natural union is between a man and a woman or moose.

2. The Chinese government will allow a Disneyland to be built in Shanghai. Chinese leaders had been worried about whether they would be compatible with Disney, since Disney is so totalitarian. Disney had originally hoped to build a theme park in North Korea.

3. In Houston, Annise Parker received the highest percentage of votes for mayor. If elected, she will be the first openly lesbian mayor of a major American city. Unless you count Mike Bloomberg.

4. In New Jersey, Chris Christie handily won the governor’s seat. It’s seen as a major comeback for the ISPDN (International Society of People with Double Names), after the loss in Afghanistan of Abdullah Abdullah.

5. The head Palestinian negotiator said that if Israel continues to build settlements in Palestinian territory, the Palestinians will have to abandon the two-state solution. This was the top story last night on “Duh News”.
