Want to know if your vote counts? Republican wins local election by 6 votes...

I am sure that a recount is in the offing... but geez this bites. I donated to Kinzie and helped put out signs and this result is actually an amazing success in a district that has been dominated by Republicans for so long that no one remembers when a Democrat last won. But geez -- 6 votes, 6 people. SIX!

City Council District 2 - With 72 precincts out 72 reporting (unofficial)
Jillian Kinzie (D)– 442
Brad Wisler (R) – 448

Every election should have them, particularly the Presidential election. Imagine how that would change things.
