Election Night Events Host Pelosi and (Waxen) Obama

Although the media's focus was on the presidential candidates' election night festivities in Chicago and Phoenix, Washingtonians did throw a few parties of their own. With large-scale functions held by political organizations as well as smaller, more informal affairs, local organizations, business, and publications seized the opportunity to commemorate the evening's historic election.

Steps away from the U.S. Capitol at the Hyatt Regency Washington, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee held its "Election Watch Party," featuring Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi on stage with U.S. Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida. Some 800 guests—mostly Democratic insiders and members of the media—converged in the Hyatt's ballroom, where a patriotic stage was festooned with flags and flanked by two projection screens with continuous voter returns coverage. Blue lighting and star-shaped gobos cast a glow on the ballroom walls and ceiling, while an all-American menu included bite-sized burgers and pizzas from the Hyatt's in-house catering team. MORE >>

While Candidates Head to Home States, D.C. Hosts Array of Smaller Election Night Parties

Although Washington is considered the epicenter of American politics on nearly any given day of the year, the nation's capital won't be squarely in the spotlight on election night. As we've reported, Barack Obama is throwing a big bash at Chicago's Grant Park tomorrow night, while John McCain will either be with supporters inside the Biltmore hotel in Phoenix or addressing reporters on the property's front lawn, as the Associated Press reported last week.

However, D.C. is not without its celebrations, albeit without the presidential candidates' presence. Events ranging from public parties to exclusive V.I.P. affairs will take place in town tomorrow night as the results of the historic campaign roll in. MORE >>
