  • Deadly Tsunami Sweeps Through South Pacific by the Associated Press Text Sizeaaa September 29, 2009
    Deadly Tsunami Sweeps Through South Pacific by The Associated Press text sizeAAA September 29, 2009 A powerful Pacific Ocean earthquake spawned towering tsunami waves that swept ashore on Samoa and American Samoa early Tuesday, flattening villages, killing at least 39 people and leaving dozens of workers missing at devastated National Park Service facilities. Earthquake Near American Samoa Source: U.S. Geological Survey Credit: Alyson Hurt/NPR Cars and people were swept out to sea by the fast-churning water as survivors fled to high ground, where they remained huddled hours later. Signs of devastation were everywhere, with a giant boat getting washed ashore and coming to rest on the edge of a highway and floodwaters swallowing up cars and homes. American Samoa Gov. Togiola Tulafono said at least 50 were injured, in addition to the deaths. Hampered by power and communications outages, officials struggled to assess the casualties and damage. But the death toll seemed sure to rise, with dead bodies already piling up at a hospital in Samoa. The quake, with a magnitude between 8.0 and 8.3, struck around dawn about 20 miles below the ocean floor, 120 miles from American Samoa, a U.S. territory that is home to 65,000 people. The territory is home to a U.S. National Park that appeared to be especially hard-hit. Holly Bundock, spokeswoman for the National Park Service's Pacific West Region in Oakland, Calif., said the superintendent of the park and another staffers had been able to locate only 20 percent of the park's 13 to 15 employees and 30 to 50 volunteers.

  • Minnesota 2012 President Poll
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 8, 2010 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Obama leads all Republicans in MN, Romney bests Pawlenty Raleigh, N.C. – President Obama won Minnesota by about ten points over John McCain two years ago. At this early point in the 2012 cycle, PPP finds that the candidate who comes closest to beating him is not the one who would like to ride his record from two terms as the state’s governor to the White House. In fact, it is the same candidate who comes closest in his own two native states—nearby Michigan and far-away Massachusetts—as well as nationally and in a number of other states: Mitt Romney. But even Romney comes no closer than five points, and Obama tops the candidates other than Romney and Tim Pawlenty by double digits. Pawlenty can only muster 43% to Obama’s 51%, which essentially mirrors the governor’s 43-53 job approval rating as he prepares to leave office. Meanwhile, Romney holds Obama to 47% and gets 42% himself. Mike Huckabee lags, 40-50; Newt Gingrich, 38-51; and Sarah Palin, frequently bringing up the rear, 36-54. As in Michigan, the president has his base almost universally behind him, earning 92% (against Romney) to 95% (Palin and Pawlenty) of Democrats’ votes. But no Republican can do better than 90% of the GOP (Pawlenty); Palin gets only 76%. Obama also wins independents by two (Romney) to 25 points (Palin).

  • Voters' Pamphlet
    Pierce County Official Local Voters’ Pamphlet Primary Election | August 16, 2011 "I am an American" Day observance, May, 1941, Jason Lee Middle School. Sponsored by the Tacoma Americanization Council. We're bringing back an old tradition. Published by the Pierce County Auditor's Offi ce piercecountywa.org/elections 253-798-VOTE (8683) or 1-800-446-4979 Message from the Auditor Dear Voter, If there is anything predictable about elections, it is change. Every year, something new is introduced. Budget reductions, new laws, fresh regulation…you name it. We take it in stride. Election year 2011 is no exception. Plenty has changed. • Vote-By-Mail is now the law of the land. Pierce County can no longer conduct polling place elections. • Our aging Express Booths have been retired. • We now have 23 Ballot Deposit Sites throughout the County. • Five new Voting Centers will be opened across the County. • “I Voted” stickers are back! Vote-By-Mail For 17% of Pierce County’s voters, this is a big change. Instead of driving to a polling place, a ballot will be mailed to your home. Simply apply a stamp and mail your ballot before August 16th. Or, drop it off at any one of our 25 Ballot Deposit Sites or six Voting Centers. Locations are on pages 8 - 10 of this booklet. Express Booths In 2010, we began the process of retiring our staffed Express Booths. In 2011, Express Booths have gone away entirely. It's expensive to staff these booths, move them, and store them. And, the booths were breaking down after nearly two decades of use.
