Kirk McPike has written a fantastic essay elsewhere on this site, describing in great detail the workings of the Dallas Coordinated Campaign. I highly recommend his blog to eveyrone. Here's the link:

I too have also blogged the local election, and not to toot my horn too much, but I think my essay makes a nice combination with Kirk's. You can read it here:

As you'll see, some of the conclusions I draw from the data are supported by Kirk's description of the overall turnout rise in Dallas County and how hard the Dems worked all the county.
It's part of a larger series of essays I've recently posted, reflecting on many facets of the 2006 local elections.You can links to seven new election blog entries in one convenient place here:

Topics covered:
-- Why the Dems Won
-- Disgusting Campaign Tactics by the Republicans
-- What it was like, as a candidate's spouse, this time verses last time.
-- Concerns about Free Speech and the right to express ourselves.
-- Why We Should Elect Judges.
Hope you enjoy it.
