Smelly Kat's Election Flub
I work double duty at the radio station. I am the co-producer and co-host of the K92 Mornin' Thang, but I also work for the news station writing news stories.
Election night means I am somewhere in the area gathering vote numbers. Last night found me at the Roanoke City Registrar's office watching the Sheriff's race.
While it is usually fun working special events like that, last night turned into a disaster when every news organization in the valley called Octavia Johnson's win, long before every vote was counted, and it was all because of me.

Too damn funny! I really miss listening to you guys in the mornings...
(I was the guy a few months ago who had the woman I was seeing re-fold my delicate underthings because I had folded them 'wrong')
Hey, Smells... don't sweat it. When Joey threw it to me last May on election night (I was at Republican headquarters in 2004), instead of the conversation going like this:
Joey: Becky, what can you tell us?
Becky: Well, Joey... blah blah blah
... it went like this:
Joey: Let's go live now to Becky at Republican Central. Becky?
Becky: Becky... er, um, Joey... blah, blah blah.
Calling an election before it's over... no big deal. ;) I, apparently, don't know who I'm talking to.
