In case you missed it on philly.com, The Inquirer photographers put together a nice slideshow of the major Democratic mayoral candidates going about their Election Day. My favorite shot is Number 12, of Michael Nutter and his family. Ever since her commercial appearance, daughter Olivia has been stealing some of the spotlight from her dad. Plus, even if it's part of the spin, I always like to see the candidates interacting with their families. Reminds me that no matter what candidates might say about one another, or one another's ideas, etc., throughout the race, they've all got a soft side.
