I'm a bit late to the posting blitz, but with the flu and all I crashed before the absentee votes could be tallied and the results read. I'm very happy that despite his shady tactics, his PAC funding, his deceptive mailers, and his ACORN goons Tim O'Brien was unable to secure a victory for himself. Considering the Republicans looked to have also picked up two seats on the Council, that is a big change, and a change that could mean good things for this city.
