After voting, today’s political agenda:
Celebrate at The Cupcakery (6975 Lebanon Road, suite 306, Frisco; 214-705-1110), which is dishing free patriotic cupcakes, 8 a.m.-6 p.m., to customers who have “I Voted” stickers. Or, show your true colors with a red or blue star version from Sprinkles (4020 Villanova Drive; 214-369-0004).
During lunch, toast your presidential pick at Fuse (1512 Commerce Street; 214-742-3873) with a Hurricane McCain or Blue Donkey cocktail. For happy hour, sugar up to your candidate with a pomegranate Obama Pama or rum-infused 10 Cane McCain at W Dallas’s Living Room Bar (2440 Victory Park Lane; 214-397-4100), which will also be streaming live election coverage.
After work, make the Omni Dallas Hotel at Park West (1590 LBJ Freeway; 972-869-4300) or Omni Mandalay Hotel (221 East Las Colinas Boulevard; 972-556-0800) your campaign headquarters, 6-10 p.m. Both locales’ lobby and lounge areas will have election coverage, political-themed menus (think Poll Sliders and Stock Market Blues cocktails), and a drawing for a weekend stay in the presidential suite.
Or if home is your viewing station, pick up Which Party wares — acrylic trays, foam koozies, plastic cups — from Swoozie’s (8417 Preston Center Place Drive; 214-890-0433). Don’t miss the cheeky lollipops that say “Sucker for (candidate’s name).”
The late-night sugar rush could come in handy.
