Roseanne Barr

November 23, 2012

In the days following the presidential election, Jewish celebrities tweeted their thoughts. Some congratulated President Obama: “i only ask for a certain amount of miracles a year. i can check this one off!” Sandra Bernhard offered. Some discussed the real winner of the election: “Nate Silver was just anointed Emperor of Math,” Michael Ian Black wrote. Some shared their personal celebration: “I am a sleep-deprived zombie. But a happy zombie. Haven’t stayed up so late since New Year’s Eve 1960,” Judy Blume tweeted. Some complimented the Republican candidate: “Classy concession speech by Mitt Romney. Gave the speech alone, took high road, no excuses, and the country can move on,” Elizabeth Banks said. Actress Roseanne Barr, who surprisingly finished fifth Nov. 6 with more than 48,000 votes, congratulated Obama and tweeted her wish for the next election: “2016 ballot access in all 50 states.”
