Breaking from Fox News: Congressman Dave Reichert (R) defeats Darcy Burner (D).
I wonder how many more ballots they have to count? I wish some miracle would occur and Napolitano would lose.
Have the democrats already claimed the seat?
Hopefully Reichert can make it through the sure to come recount.....and if history means anything....well...it won't be good.....but, I'm crossing my fingers.
He's gotten about a hundred closer, and they are still counting, but it's still a long way to go.
The Marriage amendment got about a hundred closer as well, in the last 2000 votes counted, but it's got to pick up 49,000 more votes, so it's probably a lost cause.
Latest numbers for JD:
HAYWORTH: 82,485 - 46.8%
MITCHELL: 88,302 - 50.1%
SEVERIN: 5,578 - 3.2%
TOTAL: 176,365
US Rep Dst 5
100% (250 of 250) precincts reporting

Great news! Congress just got a little redder!
And JD Hayworth's seat is still in play, except in the Blue media who couldn't tell the truth if they had to. Keep praying!
Rob Simmons (R-CT) has closed the gap to 66 votes. Hopefully they can find just a few more.
You mean for JD? MItchell has not said anything and I think he is waiting for the votes to be counted. Yet, AP called it early on for Mitchell. Fools.
I guess they decided not to count all those "look what we found!" ballots, like they did 2 years ago. I'm glad I don't have to say Darcy Burner is my congressman....er woman....er person.....critter?
Doesn't it seem funny that the elecion was a week ago, and in this day and age, they are still counting the votes???
Good question. I'm not sure.
Fantastic!
Still waiting on word about the CT. race in question as well. This is good news though.
It does.
What is even more wierd is I understand Oregon counts all votes by hand.
I think it was "too close to call."
See this for an explanation about the ballots:

So, with about what 65,000 votes to count as of last Thursday night...JD has a good chance then!
Thanks for the link, Hildy.
Hayworth got crushed.
