Party Crasher: Electoral Edition

Back in February, I crashed Senator McCain's pre-Super Tuesday rally. So, it was only fair to trot out the "suburban camo" one more time, and crash Jim Martin's Election Night party Tuesday night. :) Three pictures came out OK:

When I arrived, around 9ish.

The press table.

Martin makes an 11pm appearance.

There was a moment of hilarity during President-elect Obama's speech, when he called out Atlanta. The entire gathering erupted in a collective holler, only to be hushed in dissonance between Obama's mention of 106-year-old Ann Nixon Cooper, and recollection of the morning's AJC's story of another centurion, who was also voting for the first time.

And with that, it was back home to check up on some software installs for work, limiting my exposure to street parties to the occasional drunks seen tripping over the sidewalk or curb.
