I’m sitting in the balcony at Shortridge Middle School waiting for Marion County Democrats to begin slating their candidate for the 7th Congressional District to replace the late Julia Carson. The voting starts at 10 a.m. and 599 precinct committeemen are eligible to vote.

I’ve run into a number of candidates, Andre Carson, Carolene Mays, David Orentlicher, Randle Pollard and Mike Rodman and they all feel good about today. None of them feel this matter will be settled in the first few rounds of voting.

I’ll be live blogging all day so check back frequently.
