Scrutinizing the south

I wore my froggy tie and cast Riverton's first vote! Once that was out of the way, I sat down to scrutinize everyone else. I applied my scrutiny scrupulously. No one escaped mine. I saw nothing untoward, but had a great low-volume conversation with the natty scrutineer sitting beside me. We sorted most of the country's ills in a matter of 2 hours. Someone said, "The coalition's going well then!"
