2. And very little (if any) mention of her sexual orientation
in the campaigns or in the news. Although I hear someone just said something dumb in a prayer somewhere - heard it in a teaser. If I hear the actual story later, I'll post it.

3. Found it, I think
(I'm probably not still going to be watching the news at 6:00, so I tried Google.)

Morales refused to concede before all the returns had come in.

About 50 of his supporters stood in a circle and held hands while Eric Story led them in a prayer.

“Lord give us victory. We're going to fight as conservatives,” said Story. “We're going to see our city and our state and our nation turn around. God, it's not over. We can't stand by and see the lifestyle that's assuming she's going to win take office.”

4. Yep, that was it.
And the jerk is now on TV saying something about "history shows when that lifestyle is accepted, nations go downhill." I think Morales has disavowed it, and Parker didn't even want to see the tape of it.
