Oh the font treatments!

Vanity Fair's website relaunched this week, with a spiffy new design that promotes the VF Daily content and reorganizes the top navigation by medium (video, photo, magazine) as opposed to topic (Hollywood, Business, Politics).

The relaunch required updating the magazine's CMS to Adobe CQ5.

The top spot at Vanity Fair's digital team has been empty since longtime VF-guy Michael Hogan left in June, heeding Arianna Huffington's siren song to become features editor for AOL Huffington Post and editor in chief Moviefone and AOL TV. He brought Mike Ryan, who had been contributing to VF.com since 2009, with him.

Mr. Hogan had been promoted to an executive position in February, which included such headaches as iPad editions, mobile apps, and social media and left the day-to-day of VF.com to new hire Christopher Tennant. Mr Tennant departed after just a few weeks.

Neither position has been filled, and in the mean time former Conde Nast digital editorial director Jamie Pallot serves as an interim executive editor for multimedia.

"There will be a new editor; we have not yet made a final decision on that," Mr. Pallot said.

As for the website, Mr. Pallot said it's just a soft launch but so far, so good.

"I’ve done a lot of re-launches, and this is the first in which traffic has gone up, significantly, from day one," he said.

A Vanity Fair spokeswoman said that average daily traffic is up 67% since the relaunch on Tuesday.

"The big hits have been Michael Lewis – both his September issue story on the German economy, and a substantial update he did exclusively for the site; the International Best-Dressed List; and a web-exclusive Elvis photo portfolio," he added.

The Elvis and Bobbi pics are cute but (and with all due respect to Mr. Pallot) portfolio is just a fancy word for slideshow.

In the Staten Island District Attorney's race , with 92 percent of the precincts reporting back, incumbent Republican Dan Donovan got 17,523 votes (67 percent). Democratic challenger Mike Ryan got 8,527 (32.7 percent).

In the City Council race in Brooklyn, with 100 percent of the precincts reporting back, incumbent Democrat Mathieu Eugene got 3,024 votes (90.4 percent). Republican challenger Clarence John got 322 votes (9.6 percent).

In the civil court judicial race in Brooklyn, with 100 percent of the precincts reporting back, Democrat Noach Dear got 7,634 votes (65 percent). Republican James McCall got 4,106 votes (35 percent).

There are a more local election results here and here.

And here are links to more results for races in and around Dutchess County, Erie County, Mt. Vernon, Nassau County, Syracuse and Westchester County.

Interestingly, Spitzer is in the city today, but he isn't making an appearance with Ryan on State Island. And, so far, the governor has no public schedule for tomorrow, Election Day.

Above is one of the dozen or so created for the incumbent, Republican Dan Donovan. In this one, he discusses his felony conviction rate in the borough.

It’s for the Democratic District Attorney candidate, Mike Ryan, and it features Jo Marie Damato, the mother of an alleged sexual assault victim whose case ended with the alleged perpetrator free.

“Donovan, you were wrong," she says. "Thanks to you Mr. Donovan, there’s a sexual abuser walking the streets now.”

The incumbent in the race is Republican Dan Donovan, who is also coming under fire from his one-time employer, Jim Molinaro, the Borough President. Molinaro is unhappy Donovan didn’t get his grandson off on charges of assault.

A Ryan campaign aide said the spot will run 150 times on the most watched cable stations on Staten Island.
