Well it will only be 2 more days before the polls will close.. Then we will know for sure the out come of our fight against HSUS and the rest of the anti's.. It is still looking good and we believe we will be sending HSUS packing back to D.C... I will let you all know once we get the votes counted on how things went.. Even though we are in belief of a solid victory a lot can still happen..

Well we have another anti busted for shooting grouse out of the window of a motor vehicle.. This guy claims he has shot 40 bears in 25 years ethically here in the state of Maine.. Legally there would be no way he could do that. Plus it was very doubtfull from the begining.. LOL He was an anti story teller and that was about it.. Now he has a real story he can share with them. lol Another one bites the dust...

While the vote is still being counted.. It looks like a win for us and HSUS will be getting the boot award the heck out of here.. As it currently stands we are clearly winning this against the antis and their money buying scemes.. Currently holding a 6 % lead with the counting winding down.. Yahooeee!!

I didn't think the election went too bad in CO. Udall is gone, Coffman and Buck are in office. Granted we didn't get rid of Hickey Baby but it was close.

It was a long and drawn out battle that is for sure.. We pulled all political parties together and used all the resources we could find.. Also a lot of out of state help with the backing which was very helpful and a big thank you goes out to them.. I can tell you first hand it was a very tiring road to go but well worth it.. HSUS threw everything at it and still failed and that makes us proud up here.. Even though we wished the win would of been strong we still prevailed with the outcome.. HSUS looks at Maine as if it would be some kind of trophy if they can break us.. We let them know not yet!!
