Pittsburgh Stays Blue

In one of the few Mayoral contests that appeared to be in doubt heading into today's voting, the AP has declared Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl (D) the winner over tech consultant Mark DeSantis (R). With 55% of the precincts reporting, Ravenstahl led DeSantis 63%-35%.

GOPers thought they had a chance against Ravenstahl, and were aided by ethics charges against the incumbent, but ultimately, the city's huge Dem registration advantage gave Ravenstahl the huge edge. [Tim Sahd]
