Electile Dysfunction

Yesterday was the Primary Election for several seats in Utah public office, including Salt Lake City Council, District 4, for which Brian was running. He threw a party last night before the final results were posted to get us all good and drunk. That way, if he won, we'd be celebrating. If not, we'd be dulling the pain.
The polls closed at 8 PM, and tallies starting coming in around 8:45. The Primary was held in order to bring the number of candidates down to two. Unfortunately, Brian came in third out of six, which, in my opinion, is still pretty damn good for a first timer. I'd helped Brian walk door-to-door a couple times in his district, which was interesting and kinda fun. I hope he doesn't totally throw in the towel on a political career. That kid's got a bright future.
