Thank you, all you DUers who voted for Nancy Skinner
As of just before the polls closed this afternoon, Nancy was in first place!!! All of you helped get her there. Now we have to wait until Monday to see if she actually won. With Instant Runoff Voting, we won't know the winner until all the votes are tallied and allocated according to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place votes.

Thanks again.

DUers rock!

1. woohoo!
I emailed DFA, and they say that the live results DID reflect IRV! I also got an email randomly asking me to confirm my vote, so keep your eyes open for those too.

Thanks again to everyone who voted!

They must really be partaying at the office tonight! There was plenty of booze and food left from last night's fundraiser.

10. You can always go back & post the results
thanking them for their "support." :rofl: Perhaps if they had worked as hard for their 2 candidates, they would have had a dog in the fight.

12. That's where I first heard her too
I liked how we got an inside look into politics when she ran in the Illinois primary against Barak Obama & others. I'm glad to see she hasn't given up & could win us a Democratic seat in the House to boot! :)

According to Jordan, upthread, he e-mailed DFA and they said the final Friday standings already included the IRV, so we're pretty sure she won, I guess, but we won't have the official word until Monday after they audit the votes.
