    Do you think that the election will be called today? Or will we not know the outcome for a couple of days? Maybe mallahan will be ahead and then McGinn will crush him tomorrow? OMG, I’m so excited I think I will have to start drinking now.

    You may be drunk for a long time…if it is this close there will probably be a recount.

    Still too soon for stoke…never too soon for hope.

    Um, Dan? It’s looking like a done deal for McGinn. He’s more than hanging on.
