…for the SECB’s election-night coverage. We’ll have the winners, the losers, the victors, the victorias, and the Costco-catered buffets. Plus, you guessed it, we’re sending Goldy to the Yes on I-1183 victory party.
Please toss your predictions in comments.

When will the show start?
Initially, the counts will show incumbents doing well, until they count the 20,103 ballots I mailed in today, after which everyone will be shocked at the change in results.
It would have helped if the drop boxes had more space, so I had to go to all the post offices …
goldy gets drunk on big box store liquor (imported for the party from california) insults some people, gets punched/kicked/assaulted and is then thrown out for disruptions related to putting his head in the way of other people’s fists, forks & feet.

I’m with @3. I predict childish and violent behavior from Goldy until Lindy kicks his ass.
Just let prop1 pass and i1125 fail
After today’s meltdown, you should send Goldy to the unemployment line.
Goldy yells a lot, threatens violence, calls everyone stupid, weeps in corner, picks fight with busboy.
8pm
Thanks for nothing Goldy.
If I-1183 passes, I predict Goldy will get a DUI tonight.
@8, remember Lindy’s in L.A. now, probably thinking less often each day of Stranger/Index Media LLC and its denizens.
And Goldy @7, not sure Forch will win – could be the only eightysomething out of a job soon is the one named Paterno.
@14: The safe bet is to pick just incumbents, and if I did that, I’d probably have a better score at the end of the night than the way I picked. But if you don’t stick your neck out a little in predictions, what’s the point?
As for the suggestion elsewhere that I have or will pitch a fit… you guys are funny.
@15, makes sense, and I won’t argue, especially since I’m too chicken/lazy to predict the full slate myself.
Ohio’s issue 2 (anti-collective bargaining for public workers) just got crushed. Suck on that, Kasich!
Goldy, you already pitched a fit today:

You really went straight to the personal insults and jibes in the comment thread, in the face of mostly sincere and well-reasoned criticism of your post.
