I am almost ready to be put out of my misery.
hmmm, interesting....as a Montanan, I am sitting here with knots in my stomach and a sinking feeling. Wouldn't we all love to see Burns come through!
I suspect the votes coming in from Yellowstone are in Billings. The outlying areas probably have already been counted.
