Good morning, Washington. This DCist editor doesn’t personally follow Bravo’s Top Chef (spoilers follow!), but if this morning’s incoming tweets are any indication, D.C.’s own Carla Hall didn’t do so well in last night’s finale, and someone named Hosea walked away the big winner—and not necessarily to the delight of fans. Still, if the success of previous locally-based Top Chef losers is any indication, we’ll be hearing more from Carla soon enough.

Voting Rights Debate Continues: Senate action is set to continue this morning at 9:30 a.m. on the D.C. House Voting Rights Act. Make sure to catch up on yesterday’s action with our comprehensive live-blog, and tune back in this morning for a series of votes on the remaining amendments that were offered yesterday, including Jon Kyl’s retrocession amendment and John Ensign’s District gun law repeal amendment.

Also of note: the Post reports that yesterday’s lengthy House Judiciary Committee hearing did vote to take the House version of the bill to the floor for a vote. The House is expected to vote on the legislation next week.

Briefly Noted: Man fatally stabbed near Howard University … Woman struck by stray bullet in car … 1st District Police Station set to open in Southwest … Two Maryland teens die from the flu … Gunman sexually assaults two teens in Oxon Hill.

This Day in DCist: In 2008, an ice cream shop on U Street was robbed in broad daylight, and in 2007, we had a big enough snow storm to see a bunch of snowmen in Logan Circle.
