I love this shaw coverage, between the gaps everytime they go to Nenshi HQ, and the "nude" Councillors in Banff, it is more entertaining then the election.

My TweetDeck is flying at Super Bowl-like speed... too many people trying to live-tweet results from every ward.

The chat on CBC's site with Scott Dipple, Stephen Carter and Bruce Cameron is more entertaining than the CTV or Shaw coverage...

Can't believe Connelly is winning in 6. Although this is the part of the city that keeps voting that idiot Anders in every election.

We need a Kwame Kilpatrick type scandal (Detroit mayor sentenced to 28 yrs for fraud) for voter turnout to really go through the roof.

^Yeah but it's very early and by the slimmest of margins.

The early results from ward 11 are interesting too. Pincott winning by quite a bit with a small sample size.

Looks like Druh is finished. She's a distant third at the moment.

Edit: actually that's only one station reporting, nevermind.

Small sample size is small. She's only trailing by 9 votes. Way too early to call that race yet.

[Edit] I posted this before your edit.

[Edit #2] And now she's up by 3 votes with 2/21 polls reporting.

What is with Ward 13's obsession with DCU?

And as we all know, when businesses get lower taxes, that money is immediately passed on to their workers.
