Election night plans
I'll be covering the Brock campaign as GOP supporters watch the returns come in tomorrow night. The full story will appear in next week's Pulse (news editor Angela Tant will be at the Berke event), but watch for some tidbits to hit the internet sooner than that. (UPDATE: looks like I chose the wrong celebration. Oscar's is at his real estate company's site on McCallie Ave, which is also his campaign HQ; Andy's, on the other hand, is at Sugar's Ribs. Maybe the Brock party will have candy.)
Brock's supporters have maintained a consistent lead over those clicking for Andy Berke in the Chattanoogan.com's latest online (unscientific) poll. Right now it's at 1,630 1,706 votes, 52% of which are for Oscar Brock. Man, if only this many people would vote (for either) in real life!
(No need to explain cookies and what-all to me. I'm just ranting about low turnout.) (UPDATE on that: I cast ballot #14 at my precinct this morning, after it had been open for an hour. Based on that, I think this election could be very close.)

Just returned from Andy Berke's victory party. The crowd and the candidate were upbeat, happy, grateful. That Andy Berke - what a classy guy! He thanked Oscar Brock for running a positive campaign that focused on the issues. Then he thanked Ken Jordan, John Wolfe, and Lee Whitaker for also running great campaigns. He was genuinely moved as he thanked some specific voters who had shared their stories with him during the campaign. He said he was humbled and awed by the people he met. And you know what ... I believe him!
And sorry to tell you Joe, but Sugar's BBQ was fabulous!
