A group of us hunkered down at the Baldwin St. Grille to watch the election results come in. I didn't stay to hear the acceptance and concession speeches--in fact, I was asleep by 10:30pm--but a good time was held by all. And we were mostly happy with the results: Mourdock and Akin voted out, Elizabeth Warren voted in, Barack Obama re-elected for four more years, and Tammy Baldwin proudly elected our senator. The only part I wasn't thrilled with was our state legislature's red turn. Alas, we can't have everything we want.
