All I want to do is curl up in front of CNN right now, but alas, there are Excel charts to be formatted. So I wait instead and comb cnn.com and nytimes.com for some news, any news...just to be greeted by a countdown until the polls close. But I want new information right now!
Enter @MNvotes. I noticed the #mnvotes tag while Tweeting this morning, but I just now realized that MNvotes is also a Twitter username. And it's owned by the Pioneer Press!
This is great. People want to creep out on election news all day long, even if it's just reports of Lakeville lines moving fast and a voter wrongly turned away in Prospect Park. PiPress, I had written you off in your battle with the Strib for the surviving Twin Cities daily, but you just struck back in a big way. Only 125 followers, but I'm guessing you have a lot more stalkers like me seeing you turn up in friends' Tweets or Summize results instead of adding you as a friend. Very nice!
Let's hope that's not an indication of another comeback from a competitor we'd written off...
