Given that is all the pipefitters and their buddies could get for the absentee votes with all their so called allies and organization I think it looks good for Greg and Andy.

[Ward8]

50% of votes are counter in Ward 6
Sullivan 208 46%
Podleski 240 54%

25% of votes counted in Ward 8
Schmidt 123 52%
Striebel 112 48%

two very close races with still a ways to go.

Put your money on Podleski and Schmidt.

[NorCo Republican]

Andrew won Greg lost sorry just forwarding the results

[J and J 2000]

It's down to the fingertips for ward 8.

[Ward8]

Greg lost by only 7 votes, Podleski won 54%-46%. Will Striebel do a recount.

I hope that this election sends a message to the rest of the city council.the city needs change to go forward.
Yes Mr schmidt kept his seat but only by 8 votes,that should be a big message to you Mr.Schmidt,listen to the people in your ward.
also to the rest of the city council please note that the sitting council president was voted out of office,you may want to listen to the people in your ward you may not be a shoe in the next time your seat is up for election

[Common Man]

Chalk one up for the common man. WARREN (BUTCH) TAYLOR a Shop n' Save clerk won a seat on the Hazelwood council. I hope he makes the right decision with regards to the Ford plant tax issue.

Congratulations Mr. Podleski!

The rain held off until 7:00 PM - was it the luck of the Irish? LOL

With the margin of victory so slim, and absentee ballots being the most likely fraudulent, These might be worth checking out.

[Absent minded professor]

With numerous vacant homes, possible dead voters, a large number of absentee ballots and possible electronic voting errors, I'd say it is completely necessary to recount.
A small change of only 9 votes could bring a very needed and large change to Florissant politics.
Let the recount begin!

[thats odd]

Am I missing something? Has anyone seen any results on tv or do I just keep missing when Florissant comes on? I dont see it on any news station's web sites either. Has anyone seen it on tv or on news sites? Just curious.

I sat through the 9 PM news on Fox2. The resulst went from Ferguson to Kirkwood. I didn't even realize that Cuba, Missouri was in the Fox2 viewing area. Day by day, I trust Fox2 to deliver complete and comprehensive news reporting. They repeated the voting results at least 3 times across the bottom of the screen. When they were through, they said,"more voting results can be found by logging onto our website and clicking on the politics tab."

Fox 2 did nothing but run stories about Kirkwood. They interviewed the sorry candidate who read a letter from Moochers Park tell in the mayor-elect that Kirkwood needs kiss their butts so nothing like this ever happens where one unhappy racist Meacham Park resident is forced to go on a killing spree again.

Sorry, my blood boils when I see a community trying to heal and not one shred of remorse comes from Meacham Park! Call me a racists, but Kirkwood needs to break annexation with Meacham Park and let them be their own city. It would be Kinlock Estates.

Time for me to go back to KSDK - "where the news comes first" and isn't so censored and biased.

[Adolph]

Channel 5 was no better I watched till 10:30. There was no results for Florissant on air or on website. Piss poor coverage,

[crab]

I never saw it on KSDK either, its not on their website too.
I'm in the same boat, channel 2 has really ticked me off lately. Its impossible to get any news about Florissant on TV it seems, from any station.

I watch Fox News when I need a laugh. If it wasn't for the meteorologists, the mornings on Faux News would be completely lacking in any sort of intelligent observations and comments.
It is a pretty sad situation when one of the most mentally quick people on that program is Tim Ezell the "comic relief" stooge.
I wish I had a dollar for every dumb thing they have said and an extra dollar for every time the weatherman had to correct or inform the anchors of their lack of insight or knowledge.
A while back, I saw one of the lady anchors from Fox walking rapidly across a parking lot at a busy shopping center with her young child behind her trying to keep up. She never looked back to make sure the child was safe until she was across the street. I thought it was rather bizarre that someone who spends so much time telling others about accidents and tragedies was behaving in a way that could easily cause one.
Wasn't there a song by the Eagles that talks about only needing to look good to be a news person and that intelligence isn't required?

That's it!! Thanks!
It seems very appropriate...

Dirty Laundry by Don Henley

I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry

Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I dont have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry

Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em all around

We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
Its interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry

Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry

You dont really need to find out whats going on
You dont really want to know just how far its gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry

Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down

Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre stiff
Kick em all around

Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybodys pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry

We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When its said and done we havent told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!
