Dave Devarti, at Dominick’s with the Kunselman campaign, reports that Kunselman won by *six votes*.

Of course these are preliminary figures.

Anglin campaign HQ at the Firefly Club says that with about half the precincts reporting, Anglin is ahead by about a 3 to 1 margin.

At Bach School, there is currently a little flurry of voting activity. Upwards of 250 counted on the machine. It took me a dozen tries to get the machine to accept my ballot.

Re: [10] We’ve annotated in blue the vague language of the article prompting the first part of that comment. Apologies.

Another Chronicle reader was out there. Didn’t see you at Bach. There were two of us voters around 2PM and a tally of about 80 voters total. It will be a tight race.

Is it true? Can I vote in the Democrat primary even though I am not registered as a democrat? If so, I’m on my way!

Marvin, you don’t have to belong to the Democratic Party. Supposedly all the city council claims to be Democratic, even if they’re Republican or Independent, so get out there!

one can only hope that something was done about Helen Bunch, as it doesn’t seem reasonable to have candidates’ relatives staffing the polling places. My polling place was closed and empty when I stopped by to cast a write-in vote for “None-Of-The-Above”, I assume part of the “Vision Quest” by the city mothers and fathers, no more bothering with elections, we’ll just caucus at the brewing company, and exchange thoughts on Twitter…

I was voter #53 @ 11:30 AM, Ward 3, Precinct 8 (Pittsfield Elementary School). Not sure AV counted as part of total count at that time.

LOL, @ David’s report of American flag…as I was leaving, the poll workers were putting the flag up w/blue corner on upper left hand corner. Looks like people were paying attention to your report! :)

Also, looks like Bullington’s people had placed more signs up, as I saw them near the entrances alongside the Greden ones (and Kunselman’s as well). For a brief shining moment, the end of the “signage” gap…
