As the $8 drinks begin to flow and the house band of old white guys plays "Brown-eyed Girl," more and more people trickle in to the Democratic Watch Party in Dallas. The crowd is mostly black, young or gay. The average older white couple is the minority in the room.
There are whispers of a close race between Rick Perry and Bill White in Dallas County.
So far, 47.87 percent of straight-ticket voters in Dallas were Republican, while 51.72 percent were Democratic. Only .31 percent were Libertarian, and .09 percent were Green ticket.
