Election ’08: The final hours pre-Election Day

That sign in a Gatewood apartment window says it all. Still need info – where to go, what to do, who’s on the ballot? County Elections’ online HQ here; WSB Elections page here. If you take pix or video of voting/election-related happenings tomorrow, or have something else to say, please send it – all day and all night, we will be chronicling Election Day ’08 in West Seattle, with words and pictures (and results after 8 pm), as it happens.

    I will be there when the doors open tomorrow at Delridge Community Center!

    And I will be there when the doors open at Arbor Heights Community Church. I love going in person, even though they never have the I Voted stickers. I made my own – it says Yes I Did!

    If you guys think about it and have a camera handy, even a cameraphone, please take a pic of the opening line and send it to us. We are going to be at our polling place when it opens – maybe two polling places when they open – but that’s as far as we stretch at 7 am :) so all photos will be EXTREMELY welcome, don’t worry about being high quality (you all know well that WE’RE no pro photogs ourselves!) .. kind of like caucus day, when we had AMAZING photos from so many people all over West Seattle, we just want to capture the scenes – TR

    Does anyone out there know where I can find a beanie baby called, Lefty, the Donkey????

    Looks like it’s retired … eBay might be your best bet, unless anybody who reads your comment happens to have one! – TR

    Thanks TR! Anything that might be a nice democratic memento would be great.

    Anyone know of some good places to watch the election results in West Seattle? I’ve heard of a bunch in downtown, but wanted to stay closer to home. I’m hoping it’ll be a fun night!

    We’ve had that discussion in the forums.
    Team WSB is planning to be at Skylark for at least the first couple hours (6-8ish) unless breaking non-election news forces us to break away. Hoping to drop into the White Center party @ Big Al Brewing too. As I noted in the forums, someone on the West Seattle Shakers list said Mission is planning to put up the results – and I think (doublecheck this by calling or something) I heard Shadow Land might get into the act too. Here’s the forum thread:
