Photobloggin' Municipal Election Night

7:09 PM Sat, May 10, 2008 |
Elise Hu

12:24am: Photoblogging failed miserably because of unreliable connection to the internet, both via the wi-fi available at the victory parties and the shoddy wireless card I had with me. To make up for my miserable liveblogging failure tonight, I will do a post mortem winners/losers post in the morning. Well, later in the morning.

7:49pm: Connection to the internet has been in and out like crazy, so I apologize for the lack of live-ness to the blogging. We are on our way to Jennifer Kim's party now... to get some reaction and photos. More photos later.

7:39pm: The Shade party, which is right next door in this Clarksville neighborhood, is rocking. Partygoers have learned of Shade's early vote shellacking of incumbent Jennifer Kim. Shade won the early vote with 62% to Kim's 28%. Ken Weiss captured 10% of the vote, but if these numbers hold Shade avoids a runoff.

7:09pm: Starting the evening at Lee Leffingwell's party, which has about fourteen people in attendance so far. Leffingwell isn't expected until 7:30, so we got here early for parking. Early returns not showing yet.

There's too much politics in Texas to fit into a newscast, so the fun continues here.
