I have been working for a Republican candidate in a non-partisan local 
election. Actually more fun than when I have been working as an election 
judge. Yesterday I found out that after some questionable handling of the 
ballots their will be a runoff between the same two candidates as last time. 
My candidate went from 1-up to tied.
