dewey wins

Just call me the Chicago Tribune. I already called the Dems winning a majority in the City-County Council. But due to a lot of things, the chief county election clerk is having all absentee ballots in Marion County aka Indianapolis counted by hand. This means the city-county council may or may not be led by one party or the other. Democrats have never had a majority before. The Rs have led by one seat for the past four years.

Right now, Dems are leading in 15 races, and Rs are leading in 13, and there is a dead-heat tie in one. Because the leads in some of these races are so close, the absentee ballots will determine what actually happens.

The election clerk says she needs two days to do this. This what we call excitment in Indy.
