McCain is up by 6,000 votes in Missouri with 100% counted. Sounds like a possible recount?
Still looking to see how the Alaska senate race goes. It's looking like this election will have two firsts - the first black elected president and the first convicted felon elected to the senate. It should get interesting - Reid is threatening to expel Stevens if he wins. The iffy thing is that republicans will say that he was elected after his conviction, so the people took that into account. Of course, Stevens was publicly claiming that he "wasn't convicted of anything" and presumably some republican voters took him at his word.
