Morning Briefing: It's Nutter, O'Neill and Oh?

Heard in the Hall must be brief this morning, as Michael Nutter's first major address as mayor-elect will begin within an hour. But here are the highlights from last night: Nutter rolled to a historic win, the biggest since 1931. Turnout was very, very poor. The GOP at-large race remains too close to call, with David Oh holding the slimmest of leads over incumbent Jack Kelly. Councilman Brian O'Neill comfortably fended off a challenge from Sean McAleer, and no other district council challenger came remotely close to winning. We'll have much more for you throughout the day, including a take on Nutter's first address later this morning.
