11:30 PM: Dem party winds down after Culver's concession
Democratic supporters at the Hotel Fort Des Moines dispersed quickly after Gov. Chet Culver’s concession speech. The crowd that was once as large as 300 has now shrunken to a core group of about 100 supporters.
It was a tough race on the Culver family as seen from the first lady’s tears.
The demeanor of the crowd took a wild ride from celebration shortly after the victories by Braley, Boswell and Loebsack, to sorrow after the defeat of Culver.
