Vote, vote, vote, vote

I spent several minutes writing a silly poem to "Twas the Night Before Christmas" last night, entitled "Twas the Night Before Elections," but E-spouse said it was really dumb, so I'm not sharing.

However, I must do my patriotic duty and remind you all to vote today. I know I'm preaching to the choir, but my didactic Mom/school teacher shows her bossy face in these moments.

Although Blogasheville is non-partisan (sort of), I will share my endorsements (everyone else is endorsing away--and confusingly so--the progressives can't seem to all get on the same page).

Edgy Mama hereby endorses the following slate of candidates: Bellamy, Jones, Cape, and Freeborn. Taking a bow and walking off the stage to much applause and one catcall.

I've decided not to hit the party circuit tonight (the kids are cramping my style, again--good thing they're soooooo cute) but if any of you do, please tell me about it tomorrow.

unfortunately, i didn't get re-registered in time for the election... but i did convince a couple of my co-workers who also live in asheville to look into the issues a little more, and that maybe they shouldn't just vote for dunn simply because he was their dentist when they were kids.

we'll see how that turned out. polls are closing in 18 minutes...

Ashvegas has the returns!!!

Bellamy by a landslide!

Jones
Cape

Mumpy and Freeborn so so so close...but Mumpy beats him by 36 votes...

Freeborn ought to get Bellamy's empty council seat...

I couldn't be much happier with these results...

Yes, Freeborn's run an incredible race. As the fourth vote-getter, he should be a shoo in for the appointment. And we have a black Af-Am woman as mayor! We live in the coolest town ever.
