Scoreboard

Agenda items at Tuesday's meeting:
Johnson: 6
Franck: 2*
Ivins: 2
Scirocco: 4
Kim: 1

*Accounts Commissioner John Franck had three items on his agenda prior to tonight's meeting, but removed the first item, a discussion and vote on a zoning text amendment proposed by Stewart's Shop, apparently because the council needs more information before it can vote.

Year to date:
Johnson: 18
Franck: 11
Ivins: 17
Scirocco: 20
Kim: 27

From the national desk, it appears that John McCain will run for president later this year, as Huckabee conceded earlier this evening. Word on the street is that we could see a Bush endorsement in the near future. This are much less clear on the other side of the aisle. It appears that Obama has won Vermont, while Clinton took the state with the longest name in the union, but the least land-mass. Each of these carries a whopping 4 electoral votes.

As of this moment, the big prizes are slightly more up in the air. Obama currently has the edge in Texas (34 electoral votes), while Clinton has the edge in Ohio (20 electoral votes), but the night is still young. I'm hoping that things will be more clear in the morning.
