Read this as one of the comments on The New Yorker article:
In the Congressional races 316,584 Democrats voted and 356,302 Republican voted Yet 361,172 voted for Harry Reid...... that is 44,588 more people than voted for Democrats for the House... And Sharon Angle received 320,622 and 356,302 voted for Republicans for the House, which makes 35680 less. I cannot imagine that many people voting for a Republican person for the House, and then turn around vote for a Democrat for the Senate... and that leaves thousands that apparently only voted for the Senate race. The math simply does not add up.

Wow, he just pulled those votes out of his azzzz.
Interesting take. How does the math work out in other states?
