Election Predictions and Returns: Discuss!

Despite the number of important races to be decided today, signs point to an abysmally low voter turnout. Like many who have reported in, when I voted at around 2:00 this afternoon there was no wait time at my polling place, Good Shepherd Church on Cooper Street in Inwood.

Of course, a low turnout makes each vote that much more valuable. So if you haven’t cast your ballot yet, don’t pass up this opportunity to help a pedestrian- and cyclist-friendly candidate to victory.

The polls are open until 9 p.m. File your comments here as the results come in.

Any predictions in the meantime?
