William … thanks for the feedback but seriously all through the night we were updating election returns for races all across the Panhandle in our Elections section on KXLY.com.
We kept telling people that during a live webcast and live blog - pretty much every five minutes - where they could find information on each and every race.
What with the race for Sen. Larry Craig’s seat between Lt. Gov. Jim Risch and Democrat Larry Larocco and the hotly contested race for Bill Sali’s seat in the 1st District, as well as the measure to support funding for a jail in Kootenai County going down in defeat, it’s safe to say we were all over the map last night covering North Idaho.
The takeaway here is that we posted near-real-time election returns for the Panhandle and ran a live webcast and live blog from 5:30 to 10:30 last night and constantly updated people on the latest returns on all races from across the area. If you have suggestions on what more we can do on top of that we’d love to hear ‘em.
