Five D.C. councilmembers are up for re-election today, and many of them will be awaiting their fate among supporters tonight.

Ward 4 Councilmember Brandon Todd, Ward 7 Councilmember Yvette Alexander, Ward 8 Concilmember LaRuby May, and At-Large Councilmember Vincent Orange are all vying to keep their seats against a few noteworthy contenders.
