Many people in Memphis have said lately that they'll believe long-time Mayor W.W. Herenton will retire when they see it.
Well, you can be among the watchers. Click on a link at the city's home page and you can watch a live feed of the mayor's retirement reception, between now and 3:30 Central.
So far, it looks like a bunch of people standing around, with a couple of guys talking in front of the podium.
Update: As Herenton enters, chants of "four more years." Maybe the wrong sentiment for a retirement party.
GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
