Election Night(mare)

Welcome to election day in Wichita Falls, TX. 26 hours after the polls closed.. we still have absolutely no election results. No winners.. no losers. Instead we are waiting for officials from the Secretary of State's office to come and oversee a possible manual count of 40,000 ballots.
They believe it's a problem with the computer program that was installed to tabulate the results. In any case... a very long night last night.. followed by six hours of standing outside the county clerk's office.. doing interviews as the local republican and democratic party people spewed hate at each other. I love politics.
