No, she needs 40% plus one vote, and she needs to beat Nifong. I hope I am wrong, but it looks to me like she and Nifong will each get more than 40% and that Nifong will win (all this publicity is probably good for Nifong among the huge group of undecideds, who must be in never never land to not have made up their minds by now).

After all, even pro-prosecution commentators on TV say that he has handled the case all wrong.

Do not count Freda out. It is a tie according to one poll posted on this thread, but the sampling was kind of small 495 likely voters.
