I don't think anyone on the AF even noticed this race. I know I sure haven't.

From the (trashy and somewhat simpleminded) IndyStar

"Welcome to the biggest upset in Indiana political history," Republican mayoral candidate Greg Ballard told a jubilant crowd gathered tonight at the Murat Theatre.

Ballard said two-term Mayor Bart Peterson called to concede the race for the top job in Indianapolis at 10:21 p.m.

Ballard took the call from the two-term mayor in a hallway, then returned to share the news with his supporters.

"He told me, 'It appears to be over,' " Ballard said. "He congratulated me. He was very gracious. He was very nice."

Ballard, 52, is a former Marine Corps lieutenant colonel making his first run for office.
