Only in DC

One of the great DC living experiences takes place on election night. Where else do bars offer competing happy hours and expect a full house on a Tuesday night, all just to watch election returns. Many DC area residents work in government and try to ignore politics on a daily basis, however election night is different. A significant change in government can result in changes of the work life of many of us locals (democrats usually give bigger raises to civilian government employees :-). If you missed out on it this year, I must insist that you hit up a great election night party in two years time, it will be huge. And lets hope for a big raise this year...
