Here ya go...

damn you. i thought the results were out.

According to my informal discussions with election judges around the county, the YES side is narrowly outpacing the NO side. However, Steve Gloriosio's voracious appetite has resulted in many eaten ballots, most from YES voters.  Therefore, it is currently too close to call.  Tune in for more on KMBC 9 News at 10:00.

810AM, 4, & 41 are saying that the results from East Jack will probably come in FIRST (like just after 7:00pm) since some of those cities have other races going on.  KCMO should release their preliminary results from some areas sometime before 8:00pm.  So, if this is passing at first, wait for the CITY results.

you guys let kcmax post the star link to the news story in a new thread when it passes or fails.

The news was saying that East JaCo is having a turnout of up to 40% or more, which is supposedly a lot for a springtime election. they insinuated that the rest of KCMO doesn't care as much.

Why does KC have an election board separate from that of Jackson County?  Every other county in the area has one county wide election board.

This vote MUST be really close.  With the Arena vote, we knew by 7:30 that it was passing.  Even though those numbers could have changed at anytime, the preliminary results was that it was passing.

Here it is, almost 7:30....and we have heard NOTHING on this vote!

it is headed that way. i too am shocked.

25% precincts in

53% yes on question one
47% no

48% yes on question two
52% no

Remember, those are the number from Eastern Jackson County, not KCMO yet.  The numbers for Q1 might go down in the 8 o'clock hour, when we are expected to get some numbers from KCMO.

Is this a night for the chatroom?

[AllThingsKC]

I wasn't expecting 1 to pass, and 2 to fail, but I am not suprised.  Some people wanted to keep the teams (so, YES on 1), and make it cheaper for tax payers (so, NO on 2).

noone is sure of that, that is speculation. armstrong is talking about it on 810, does not sound like they agree with that logic there. either way, if this think stays thousands of votes up just in eastern jack, kcmo has a lot of its residents not in jacko, so, it may be moot.

Is this a night for the chatroom?

YES

FOX NEWS just called this election for Bush.
