Shenanigans We will hang out with Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle so you don't have to

'It's time to boogie down'

If you haven't already voted, tell your boss you're "hallucinating again," drive to your polling precinct, and cast your ballot. Polls close at 7 p.m. but get there well ahead of time so you can beat the post-work voting fraudsters.

After you select your candidates, you've got a wide variety of shindigs to consider. We listed a few in our jaw-dropping Election Guide (we failed, however, to mention the Sierra Club's Old Fourth Ward get-together, which is worth a look). If you know of any other interesting Election Night soirees, leave 'em in the comments. Plan on staying home? Jim Galloway posted a how-to video, courtesy of Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp, showing how to follow Election Results on the state's new vote tabulation system.

Tonight, CL's resident falafel critic Max Blau and I will drive across our tortured city, visiting victory parties, taking photos, talking with insiders, and sampling platters of cheese and crackers. Our first stop: the Georgia GOP party, hosted by Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle, in Buckhead. CL Photographer Joeff Davis will most likely also be out and about, capturing souls.

Look for updates here on Fresh Loaf so long as the Wi-Fi gods are on our side. Notice something fishy? Want to share a photo? Send us a line.
