Everybody Hates Chris: The District 6 Election RESULTS
Exhausted ballots and exhausted bloggers -- in the District 6 race! This week's episode: Everybody Hates RCV.
District 6 -- DALY WINS. Check here. Congratulations, Chris!
And in other RCV news -- Ed Jew wins.
And in obsessive refresh ability -- SFIST WINS!! We got our post up first over everyone else -- up by 3:47 p.m. MUST CREDIT SFIST!
Updated numbers are here. Results below. Rob Black got to 40%. We're cranking through the math and will throw it in the post after the jump. Update: Okay, it's up. We'll throw more stats in as we think of 'em.
Okay, so the totals that appear below are the FINAL FINAL numbers (though not officially certified). [Update: Nope, not quite -- there's still 1500 provisionals for both District 4 and 6 that need to be hand-counted.] The numbers we had before were the unofficial count as of 2:30 p.m. The RCV page has all the final totals as "pass one," and we've transcribed them here.
