Election Eve Parties?

I am feeling the need to watch the election results surrounded my food and booze, preferably supplied by someone else (guess it's my socialist background). Where are people going on election night?

I just discovered something really cool on my beloved TV service. It's called the DirecTV News Mix. It's one channel that has 8 boxes from 8 different news channels live. You can use the remote and move the audio to whichever box you want. It's totally awesome and totally nerdy and I totally love it. I will at home on election night with my eyes glued to the tube, Cheetos in one hand, Coors Light in the other.


From Roger Reinert:

Our elction night festivities will be held in conjunction with Congressman Oberstar's election night party in the Harborside Ballroom at the DECC. Everyone is welcome to attend! Four years ago this was a great place to watch the local and national returns.

On a related note I really want to encourage EVERYONE to help with either GOTV calling or the GOTV doorknock that's going on right now. Both are being done out of the coordinated campaign office downtown on Superior St (the old Charter building next to Carmodys). Duluth led the nation in turnout four years ago and we're pushing to do that again this time around!

Duluth led the nation in turnout four years ago

I've heard this for years (originally from Al Jourgensen, when Ministry played NorShor), but have been unable to verify it with any official statistics. Anyone got a source for this one?

It may be Garrison Keillor who said this first and the notion took hold. Actually, should be easy enough to find out, first look in the DNT's archives from the 2004 election results.


I'm going to go cash my welfare check and buy some heroin as soon as I've cast my vote for communism! So needless to say, I'll be a bit sleepy and won't be up for much partying.


I'm with Jimbo.


Just an FYI: GOTV (get-out-the-vote) for Democrats is going to be based at the Labor Temple on Election Day.
