Adding to the fun of watching election returns on a huge bank of TVs, of course, is the background chatter of people calling out “AP’s called this race for this candidate!” every couple minutes. What better place to be on an election night than in a newsroom?

Yeah, the evening went amazingly smoothly — I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it never did. Thanks for watching out for everything. A lot of preparation went into last Tuesday night, and it definitely seemed to pay off.
