And now we're down to the counting

It's 6PM. The remaining voters showing up are surly. They have no interest in taking anyone's literature. They see the "gauntlet" and the look on their faces says "Don't talk to me I know what I'm doing." There are no more votes to be found. I picked up three just for being out there, but this last hour is for the hardcore voter. It's getting dark, it's windy, it's cold and they want to be left alone.

Now we wait. I'm going for that long hot shower I've been looking forward to. It's time to tend to the wicked sunburn on my face from standing in the sun all day. A quick bite to eat and then it's off to Sharp's for the watch party (or watch wake).

Thanks everybody for reading and voting. It's been a wild ride. I hope it's not over. We'll all know in a couple of hours!

I'm pulling for you. Regardless of how the vote comes out, thanks for letting us, your collective readers, be a part of your campaign. It's been an interesting to watch the highs and lows of your campaign, and to see the inner-workings of your brain -- so to speak -- during the campaign. The way you ran this blog was unprecedented in a KC Political campaign, and I expect many to follow suit in the future. The marketing geek in me has found it interesting...and I think we'll get another 28 days or so to share the ride...

Mark,

You're seriously a hero. Thanks for all you've done - you've helped improve this city, and you've had an impact on its politics.

Hundreds of people voted for you today. That's pretty freaking cool. I was one of them.

Dan
