Seeing Miller win would really brighten my day. Murkowski’s the worst kind of RINO, the one who wins in a conservative state.
With 224 precincts in, Miller’s % now 51.87 & Murkowski is 48.1%. Looks like the last few precincts in were 2 in Juneau, 1 in Fairbanks, 1 in Wasilla, & 2 in Anchorage.
Do you think his lead will hold up?
Pretty shocking if this holds up.
225 precincts now in. Joe Miller has increased his lead over Murkowski in Alaska to 2,350 votes.
Miller 51.85 percent
Murkie 48.15 percent

I think Miller wins it.
People had been hinting the past few days that the election was going to be close and some said don’t be surprise to see Joe Miller win....it’s looking they knew what they were talking about
Here we are in the middle of one of the most exciting and unexpected possible upsets in the entire 2010 election season, and the radio station in the largest city in the state that was covering the election results just signed off! Welcome to Alaska! It never fails to amuse. They signed off here a couple of minutes ago (11 pm) with the advisement that there would be further updates tomorrow morning.
I’ll keep posting results for another hour at least. No charge and no request for donations, memberships, or ridiculous statements that you really need to pledge because there are no commercials.
Come on Miller time to bring it home.
Well, I spoke too soon. KTUU just packed it in.
