You know those new electronic voting booths that say the majority voted for so-and-so, even though the majority seems to be upset that the person they voted for didn’t win the Presidential election. Well, sometimes I think this happens with Nielsen SoundScan. This week both The White Stripes and Bon Jovi had new albums.
