Seven countywide candidates chose to visit Calhoun's largest polling place - Saks High School - to stump for some final votes in the final couple of hours of Election Day.
In the 2004 general election the site had more than 3,000 voters. So far today it's seen almost 1,700. A dozen or so people were waiting to sign in, and voters had moved to the high school gym's perimeter to find space to fill out their ballots.
Beginning at 7 tonight, results will begin to come in at the sheriff's office. Some of the candidates will be there themselves or send family members to monitor the tallies. Others - like Tom Young, who said he's had four hours of sleep total the past two days - may stop home to shower and squeeze in a quick nap before hearing the results.
