Watch parties

One of the most neglected and least planned aspects of elections (besides actually registering to vote) is where to watch the results.  For national elections, I prefer to watch with my family, groaning, pulling out hair, rending clothes (often at different announcements) and generally enjoying the proceedings.

But being a fairly unsocial person, I'm not sure of the protocol for local elections.  There are only 5 boxes (the district voting places and the early ballots), so it's not going to be a drawn out affair.  I recall that last election, Mayor Hancock hosted people in his office at City Hall, and they were out  by 2200.

Is anyone planning a watch party?  If so, please feel free to advertise it here.
