  1. I posted this below but it really belongs here… you get to party twice as hearty tonight because it’s not only Super Tuesday but Fat Tuesday (Mardi Gras).
    A quick Google search on “Super Fat Tuesday” reveals that a S.F.T. bash sponsored by Drinking Liberally will take place at Sheffield’s, 3259 N. Sheffield, Chicago, starting at 7 p.m.

    I’ll be mainly posting after work from Chicago. Speaking of which, anyone else going to election party events in the city tonight?

  3. Is Obama here or in CA? You would think he would want to party in Chicago.

    Comment by Obama? Tuesday, Feb 5, 08 @ 9:33 am

  4. I’m not sure I’ll be able to do much while the polls are open but I would like to point you in the direction of The Bench.

  6. The Bureau Co. Dems will be enjoying Chicken at Rip’s in Ladd.

  7. Obama has a hotel party tonight, not sure which hotel though.

    There’s also the drinking liberally at sheffields, which someone already mentioned. If you’re a democrat and a beer afficionado, you should go. Sheffield’s has one of the 5 best beer lists in the city, IMO (it’s almost as extensive as the lists at the Hopleaf and the Map Room).

    here’s my blog post about voting today:

  13. I’m live blogging the 7th district state senate race and Rogers Park.

    Comment by The 'Broken Heart' of Rogers Park Tuesday, Feb 5, 08 @ 11:58 am

  14. Hillary didn’t snub anyone this morning, she’s had to cancel many media interviews due to a cough. It’s been well reported, so to say they were “snubbed” is simply making things up.

    Comment by Real News Tuesday, Feb 5, 08 @ 12:07 pm

  15. Rip’s Chicken. Yum.

  18. McMenamin and Obama supporters will be watching the election returns come in at Chantilly Lace in Springfield, IL.

  19. Our Journal reporters were in the Northwest Suburbs covering the 6th, 8th, 9th and 10th Congressional races along with the 66th state rep race and several smaller races. Our guys were in the field filing on the spot. Complete coverage in the Friday edition an on the web at http://www.journal-topics.com.

    I saw the rout in the 10th as Dan Seals eclipsed Jay Footlik.
