Lisa Murkowski will hold a press conference in twenty minutes. (It's over - She is calling family)

Murkowski will hold a press conference in twenty minutes. Being generous, let’s say there are 7000 valid GOP votes left to be counted. Murkowski would need 61% of them to win. She’s done.

@shushwalshe: Murkowski staffer: "She is calling her family now. It looks like she will come out + concede. That's what we recommended to her."

The people of Alaska made the right choice in Joe Miller.

Is that what they call damning with faint praise?

The “worst of shenanigans” will come soon enough all the way to election day and after that for as long as possible until the (D)’s give and go another way, or get their way after-all.

Major, and I do mean Major Victory for Alaska, the Tea Partiers, and the Nation. Lisa Murkowski is exactly the kind of RINO that is long overdue for retirement via ballot, and I am frankly stunned, amazed, and in awe that she is gone in the Primary. Let us hope this is the foam on the tip of a large, forming tsunami...

Well Done, my friends. Simply, Well Done.

Carry on.

Yow-ZUH! This thing has one other facet to it that may be as significant as Miller’s win - it’s what the RNC heard from us when it looked like it was going to “help” Murkowski with a few DC lawyers. Make no mistake about it - the boys from the Beltway have been served notice. There’s a hard, hard rain a-gonna fall.

You know something Murk has to be spitting nail at the anklebiters who force Sarah out of the Gov. seat. If Sarah was Governor I doubt very much she would have got involved in this race.

This sweet vindication against Murk, the rats in AK and the DC elite.

Another race showing money didn't swing the vote so much. She outspent him almost 10 times I read.

Much like New Jersey, Massachusetts, and most hopefully Nevada.

Alaskan FReepers have told us with confidence that Joe Miller was going to win for well over a month now and they knew what they were talking about. Lame stream talks to like minded folks. That’s their downfall.

I just saw something on AP that she conceded. Glad that’s over. Not for a real conservative!
