A Native American proverb says, "Tell me and I'll forget,Today was a day of involement as the Democrats from throughout the county gathered to make their endorsements. I was there most of the day.
show me and I may not remember, involve me and I'll understand."
As I walked onto the scene, I overheard a couple of gentlemen slightly ahead of me talking as we approached. "This is a real circus."
The two were in disgust. Parking was scares. Hey, welcome to the South Side. But the point was well taken. Poll workers had arrived in the early hours hand had taken parking spaces near to the IBEW Hall. Voters, and a fair share of seniors too, had to walk through a block or two parked cars to get to the line to stand befor voting. No doubt, this was an ordeal for the frail. The crowd was large.
The results, thanks to a poster, are within the comments.

Thanks for the results.
Interesting news. 166 + 30 + 22 = 218. Meanwhile, Fontana got 210.
I was in the line talking to the dems throughout much of the day. Many who lived in the district were not aware of the race and the special election.
Also of note, the fur is flying in City Council District 2! That is great news for me too. As the heat cooks -- I'm sure to be able to turn some of that sizzle to votes for me, from all camps.
Paul R got ZERO votes.
Sala has his hands full, it seems. Same too with Bill Peduto.
This might be the year where the challengers get a lot of attention and votes. For the dems to topple two sitting council members with endorsements to outsiders is big news and wonderful from my perspective.
K.H-G did have plenty of supporters, but didn't hit the top seven.
Did Jim Motznik have opposition in District 4? Word on the street was some were to take on Mr. Motznik, but no results were listed by anonymous. Any idea?

Motznik ran unopposed.
