Election Night Parties!

Posted by on November 7 at 12:50 PM

As reported last Friday—when Casey Corr naively refused to tell the Stranger where his election night party will be—we’re assembling a party-circuit guide. If you want to do shots at Nickels’ coronation, cry in your wine as the monorail goes down, or get in your last indoor cigarette before smoking is banned almost entirely, here’s where to go.

And whether you head out or stay in, tune into Slog for up-to-the minute news on who’s winning, who’s losing, and who’s drunk.

(The parties get going at 8 pm, right after the polls close)

Greg Nickels: Ivar’s Acres of Clams at Pier 54, 1001 Alaskan Way

Richard Conlin: Merchant’s CafĂ©, 109 Yesler Way

Paige Miller: 711 West Kinnear Place

Jan Drago: Seattle Glassblowers’ Studio, 2207 5th (between Bell and Blanchard)

Casey Corr: T.S. McHugh’s, 21 Mercer (near Queen Anne Ave N)

Nick Licata: Mirabeau Room, 529 Queen Anne Ave N

Paul Bascomb: Central Area Senior Center, 500 30th Ave South

Dwight Pelz: Doc Maynard’s, 601 1st Avenue

Richard McIver: Four Seas Restaurant, 714 South King Street

Yes on Monorail: A.K.A. Transit Over Roads, 2045 Seattle, Cindi Laws and Cleve
Stockmeyer, Trattoria Mitchelli, 84 Yesler (at Western)

Other happenings Tuesday night include a Party Bus slated to make the rounds (with our Party Crasher on board!), ending the night at Mirabeau Room, where the city’s wonkiest citizens will no doubt have spent the entire night parsing election return data. And King County Democrats will be cutting a rug at the Westin all night.

More parties after the cut.
