I take the fact that Nickels, Licata, and Steinbrueck have already responded as indication that the vote information they're receiving does not make a trend shift look likely. I'm not going to take a firm position that such a shift won't occur- it does happen, of course, though rarely- but I'm also not going to expect it. I am certainly not the one to say that the early voters aren't the statistical anomaly, but there are folks whose place it is to make exactly that prediction.
And yes, I'm not too hopeful that this vote will make too much difference. I simply like to see voters being obstinate like this- particularly in ways I agree with. My pleasure in the results is wholly selfish.
