Casey Cagle Party

Ok, so _if_ I can find an open wireless AP I'll be liveblogging from Casey's Election night party up at the Gwinnett Arena. At the moment I'm just next door at the Loafing Leprechaun (which does have free wifi) drinking a strong bow and trying to calm my nerves. In about an hour and a half the future of the Republic will be decided.

More updates as they warrant

[20:08]Geeks save the day. I'm online
1% reporting 56% - 43% Cagle. Rock on!

[20:11] Ok, I'm reporting from the press room on my laptop. So far the crowd isn't that huge, but since most results aren't in - not a big deal. Casey is working the crowd and looks confident.

[20:45] Casey just spoke. Things are looking good, but the sun hasn't set yet. There are about 30 people around me looking for updates from Peach Pundit and Cathy Cox.

[21:19] Things are still holding with a 10% lead. There is a lot of positive buzz in the room. Somone is asking if Cobb reported 70% for cage. Switching tabs to check. (Wed update: Cobb didn't)

[21:25] I'm sitting here with Bull Moose, BahamaBoy and Kin and rjhatl and Josh Ondich and Unknown Truths and we are psyched!

I'm mildly disappointed that Karen will end up in a run off. Oh well. Can't win them all......

[21:36] Humm. Black/Kemp Run-off looks like I'm gonna be busy next two weeks. And I've got a Wedding on the 5th. Dang-it.

[21:49] Erick at Peach Pundit just called it for Casey! While that is probably pre-mature the DJ is playing Black-Eye Peas "Just get it started".......

[21:50] I just heard a rumor Ralph called Casey to Conceed...........

[22:01] Channel two just confirmed that Ralph conceeded. Its over!!!!!!!!!!

[22:11] Casey is about to speak.....

[22:14] Casey has thanked the Lord, his wife and his Children. "That what life is about. its about making a difference for others". Casey also thanked his mom, for all she has done for him. Casey thanked his fellow Senators and 400 other elected officials who supported him.

[22:19] "The good guys won tonight"

[22:19] Ralph has committed to helping Casey win. And now we all need to work to reelect Sonny.
"We've got one more hurdle to go and that is in November. So let go. God Bless You"

[23:06] The party is hoppin'

I think now is the time we need to reach out to Reed's supporters and heal the divisions in our party and REELECT GOVERNOR SONNY PERDUE!

[23:28] Its late, the press using my access point are all but gone and, I've got to get up at 0530 tomorrow. Thank you everyone who voted for Casey. This has been a historic night.

Good night!
