7TH DISTRICT AFTERNOON STRETCH
I spent a good chunk of the day making calls and talking to politicos across town about today’s race and here is what I’m able to conclude; barring some total last minute blowout whomever wins it will probably be pretty close.
The Elrod camp tells me they’re doing well in places where they need to, while Democrats say things are going as expected for them.
There appears to be very heavy on the south side of the district as well as Speedway which is heavily Republican. Center Township was described lighter than usual for the morning crowd, but the key time to observe is between now and when the polls close at 6 p.m. because that is considered make or break time due to the heaviest turnout occurs during that time.
It could be close, folks.
