Any Hollywood area Election Night parties ?

[RadiDem]

I just checked Moveon and DFA and don't seem to be able to find any election night viewing parties - end of tyranny celebrations.

There is one at the DNC in Northridge, but I would think that there must be something in the Hollywood / BH / SM area.

Any ideas ?

1. No, but let me know.

My daughter lives a block from Hollywood & Vine.

Hey, do you know if she can take a cheat sheet in with her when she votes? This is her first election, and there are a zillion propositions and judges.

I made her a voter guide, but some places won't let you use them.

3. I fill in my sample ballot beforehand and bring that with me

they always let me take it in.

4. Yes - I voted yesterday - funny story >

at the Braille Institute on Vermont near Melrose. I brought my voter guide, and they even used it to check my address.

Funny stories :

I saw the Diebold machines, and asked if I could vote on a paper ballot. I was told that I could, but not there. I said I was reluctant to vote on a machine made by the company whose president said "I will deliver this election to George Bush".

ALL the workers there ( 5 or 6 ) agreed with me. They were clearly Dems. I said it loud enough so everybody voting heard me too. At least 1/2 the people there expressed agreement.

I was actually hoping to encounter some Repuke Poll Watchers ! I was hoping to infiltrate them and tape them on my digital voice recorder talking about harrassing voters. I was going to egg them on.

No such luck ! There wasn't a Repuke in sight !

2. there are a few listed on Kerry's website

go there and put in your zip code and find several events.

I think there is one at Sportsman's Lodge in Studio City.
