4 out of 10 districts left are in urban core, it's about population now plain and simple

Most likely they'll go Brown. Of concern is 13X and 11T, although I think the latter will go to Hogan. Don't know the population stats for those two districts offhand.

I think 13X is sparse, given it hugs the south side of JTB... Might not amount to many votes.

Jumping back and forth between MJ and the Election results channel leaves no time to get up for refreshment. You guys are driving me nuts.

I am still holding out for history to be made

This should show hogan that half of the city does not care for that tea party stuff and just wants a better city. Shows him that half of the city does care about the downtown districts. Shows hogan maybe he should debate more.

SOE site isn't loading for me - must mean an update coming.

I seriously hope Hogan loses ..just because

I'm just glad that the vote gap closed from over 7K to under 1200, at least at one point. Very tight and well-contested race.

Exciting stuff for us nerd types.

t-u just said hogan lead down to 400 votes

Timkin · May 17, 2011, 08:56:54 PM

THATS WHATS UP!!!

Hogan doesn't deserve to win this, IMO. He didn't participate in most of the debates, he ran a smug campaign, and he just carried himself as if he was meant to win it.

Then again, Brown was quite the milquetoast at times, so there's something to be said there too...

Sadly Cooly, I don't think Hogan gives a rats ass about the other half of the city.

I think we're already within auto recount range
