(Bumped. Stop by in Cambridge or at the Hynes Center in between all of your hard work for the candidates. - promoted by Bob)
 The good folks at Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet and Society have kindly agreed to host a unique election day live-blogging extravaganza, to which all bloggers, commenters, and lurkers, of whatever political stripe, are cordially invited. Starting at 10 am or so, Bob (up from New York for the occasion), Charley, and I will all be on site at the Berkman Center blogging the day's events -- both local and national, as we hear about them -- and you are heartily encouraged to join us. The Berkman folks offer free wi-fi (BYOLaptop, if you can), as well as free refreshments throughout the day, and we of course offer scintillating conversation and astonishing good looks.
The Berkman Center is just outside of Harvard Square in Cambridge, next to the law school campus, on the second floor of 23 Everett Street (Everett runs between Mass. Ave. and Oxford Street, and unfortunately does not have a street sign on the Mass. Ave. end - note that it's called Chauncy St. on the other side of Mass. Ave.). No. 23 is an unprepossessing yellow house, and I don't think there's a sign (or possibly even a street number) on the building, which is an odd choice by the powers that be at Harvard, but there you go.
We hope many of you can stop by and see what's cooking at some point during the day. (Also, the Berkman Center is itself an interesting place to check out.) If you know you'll be coming, drop us a line so that we can give the Berkman folks a heads-up on turnout. But please, feel free to stop by even if you haven't RSVP'd. We'd love to see lots of you there.
Once election day is close to wrapping up, we will depart the Berkman Center for Deval Patrick's election night party at the Hynes Convention Center, and we'll be live-blogging from there as the returns come in. I'm sure we'll see lots of you there. |
