>> The win gives the GOP eight Senate pickups in the midterm elections.

Does that make 9 with LA?

One would think so. But by the time the runoff is really started there, I’d expect a total news blackout to cover up the impending loss.

Well, he tried to steal the race with fictitious, stuffed votes.

But he was unsuccessful, this time.

Praise God.

GOP has not defeated this many Democrat Senators since 1980. .. But then came 1986 elections.

I am not going to count this one into the bag, until Alaska’s Election Board certifies. Still close enough to be Frankened.

With Sullivan having a 5% percent lead, it was an easy call.

The remaining votes are not going to help Begich... since at least 5% of them to go to third party candidates.

Its over.

Its not over. 30,000 ballots to be counted on Friday. Its been 'called' but ballot stuffing may still overturn it.

Great news. Begich got his seat through the lies the Democrats manufactured against Ted Stevens. He certainly didn't deserve another term. The indigenous tribes that got paid for their votes by the Democrats before the election have a little extra money, so everybody's happy.

That’s the Minnesota trick! So now it’s going to be an abandoned car 15 miles outside of Dillingham? Surrounded by bears?

Big Itch is a curse on representaive democracy. His colleagues have been executing guerrilla warfare on Republicans who are working for SARAH Pac.That includes defamation, threats and arson.

Its more than political justice that this roach, BIG ITCH, is now unseated and deep sixed.
