In short? Periodic charter review passing mightily, civil service reforms passing with a healthy buffer, strong mayor is losing BADLY, and the PDC ballot measure is doing all right.

Of course, this will change over the next hour or more, so stay tuned.

Update: Actually, it won’t change that much. County elections is saying 82,000 people voted, and this first batch of numbers represents about 60,000. Unless 50,000 or so people voted between 7 and 8, the writing is on the wall.

Update 2: Lemme sum this up—Yes, Yes, No, Yes. Remarkably similar to our endorsements. As a side note, Chris Smith, the co-chair of the anti-strong mayor campaign, just gave me a huge, happy smile.
