John McCain Will Send Palin to Alaska for Election Day, Claims He Won't Leave Her There

POSTED BY: Dylan Ris

They're going to have to drag Sarah Palin out of Pennsylvania kicking and screaming, but when it happens, she'll at least be headed to a place near and dear to her heart… Ohio.

But then after that (and maybe one more stop in Florida), she's going home to Wasilla, Alaska

According to aides, Sarah Palin will return to Alaska to vote on Election Day.

She will travel to Anchorage the evening of Monday November 3rd and then drive to her hometown of Wasilla–about an hour away from Anchorage…

It is customary for candidates to return to their home state to vote on Election Day, but due to the amount of time it takes to fly to Alaska and the need for the GOP Vice-Presidential nominee to continue campaigning it was not confirmed until now.

McCain staffers insist that, after voting, the governor will be jetted down to Phoenix for McCain's election night party, but Palin shouldn't believe that until she sees it. There are plenty of reasons to keep her up in Alaska, including:

* The flight to Arizona will take upwards of six hours.

* There's not even enough space for McCain at his party, so why would there be any for her?

* If she really wants room, she should try Ted Stevens' newly remodeled house.

* By the time the results come in, McCain will have left her for a younger, wealthier running mate.

But there are also reasons that Palin really should be at the party in Phoenix. For one, it might be a chance to get John Rich's autograph. And what if there's a beautiful meteor shower in the Arizona sky that night?

And she'd definitely want to be there just in case — and this is admittedly going way out on a limb here — McCain wins.

  1. You couldn't see a meteor shower in Phoenix. It's a polluted hellhole.

  5. "It is customary for candidates to return to their home state to vote on Election Day"

    It is also customary for candidates running for VP to answer questions posed by the media and not avoid an electorate interested in learning more about them. But hell. Why stick to traditions?

  6. Tells you something about the "true" relationship between these two!Hopefully, she bought a few extra suitcases to bring back all those "new" cloths…….."Bye Sarah, We won't miss you!!!"
