On August 13, based on the information available to me at that point, I made a set of predictions in the local election, and posted them to my other blog with the intent of revealing them after the election. Let’s see how close I came.
Ward 1: I predicted the winner would be Chris Simmons, and I was right!
Ward 2: I was unable to predict that one, because I didn’t know enough about either candidate. Lynn Ward Gray won the race.
Ward 3: I predicted that Sherry Sofia would take the ward. I was mistaken.
Ward 4: I predicted that Liz Fulton would win over Chuck Asher. I was right.
Ward 5: I predicted that incumbent Andy Yankama would be the winrar. I was right.
At Large: I predicted that 3 winners would be: Ryan Hersha, Susan Baldwin, Diane Thompson. I thought the 4th might be Steve Bessony. I was right on 3 out of the 4.
So, I’m not Karnak the Magnificent, but I didn’t do too badly.

I’m just glad the election is over and we can all get back to business.
