NBC has projected the House for Republicans and now that the Senate is incredibly unlikely to flip (due to Joe Manchin’s victory) Now we look to silver-lining races for Democrats: — Florida Gov (Sink vs. Scott) — Ohio Gov (Strickland vs. Kasich) — Colorado Senate (Bennet vs. Buck) — Nevada Senate (Reid vs. Angle) If [...]

The polls are now closed. Some last minute reports: Ø Turnout. Our sample of final tallies from 27 divisions in two South Philadelphia divisions (1st and 39th) shows turnout at about 29% (4,399 voters out of 15,221 registered – again, registration figures from the primary). The two top divisions were Ward 1/Division 16 (63.13%) and [...]

Horray for Christopher Coons! Delaware voters he swoons. News sources have said, at last the witch is dead. To bed with tea party loons. She ends her non-victory speech with “we’ve got a lot of food… so let’s party!”

Plus, stay with us into the evening and night for election updates and sundry bits.

So, yes: Jerry Jackson of Philly’s wildly-overestimated-by-insane-white-people New Black Panther Party showed up today at the same North Philly polling place he did in 2008. Are you gonna be a giant baby and freak out about it? Or are we gonna be grown-ups and everybody fess up that this story has been so way overblown [...]

“Philadelphia: Total number of checkins: 188 68% M; 32% F.” Related: Here’s some updates from Facebook’s voter thingy.

More from our brothers from other mothers at Committee Of Seventy: We are working on getting solid turnout figures for our next update. For now: Mummers Museum Problem. The confrontation we reported earlier at the Mummers Museum in South Philly apparently escalated – and is now resolved. As we understand it, this involved an intra-GOP [...]

Like he was born to do, Pennsylvania’s 1st congressional district Rep. Bob Brady is running unopposed today. And you know that means: It doesn’t matter that he was Abscam afterbirth. (This is Philly; it never mattered.) It doesn’t matter that when he talks about street money, it’s like he’s talking about a birthright of some [...]

The seared-in memory of The Dandy Warhols, of course, will be the band as good witch to the Brian Jonestown Massacre’s very bad witch in the movie Dig! And it’s more than just movie magic — it’s probably as it should be in real life, too. Like BJM, the Dandys still rage on and walk [...]

This update just in from our friends at the Committee Of Seventy, whose website you might want to use before you head to the polls today: Despite the low turnout we are hearing from our volunteers who are all over the city, a variety of problems are happening: Minority Inspectors. The elections boards at polling [...]

Now ain’t that a jam. It’s “Midterm Exams” tonight at Philebrity Salon, by the way. But it’s a take-home test, and really, we’ll just be getting drunk and watching MSNBC anyway.

Which we take to mean, “Swap out your government whenever you feel like it because when you’re Italian, none of this bullshit matters anyway.” Seeing something around town of note? Cameraphone it to: tips[at]philebrity[dot]com.

If you like 1986, and you love Philly, and and you adore girls, well, just… this.

Oh jeez: Lock up your racial stereotypes, try not to let him get you too angry, and hide anything with a fuckhole: Longtime Philebrity wack packer Jburnside rides again. What a surprise! I bet the absentee ballots being returned are all checked Republican.The funny thing is, tomorrow, all those folks will be counted as having [...]

He was on his way over to the Michelle Obama rally. I don’t know what the punchline here is. Cue Rainier Wolfcastle, “That’s the joke.” Seeing something around town of note? Cameraphone it to: tips[at]philebrity[dot]com.

But you should get out and vote today anyway. Welcome to your Election Day edition of Philebrity; if you’ve go photos, or tips, as always, send ‘em along to tips[at]philebrity[dot]com. (The above clip, by the way, was directed by Philebrity alumnus Kristian Almgren, and we couldn’t be prouder. Find more Jimmy Mack here.)

There are problems in Philadelphia County with reported voted absentee ballots being returned to voters, instead of forwarded to the city’s Board of Elections. Since the deadline for the Elections Board to receive the ballots was Friday, October 29th at 5 p.m., some voters who expected to vote by absentee ballot may not be able [...]
