Just under 6,000 votes separated the top two candidates when the Associated Press called the race.

Bruning called Fischer to concede, he may be a liberal Republican, but unlike Lugar he showed class in wanting to come together as a party to defeat the Dem so I give him that

Better. I thought Stenberg and Fischer were going to split the vote and let Bruning slip in.

WOW! Didn’t realize she was that far back to come out ahead! Political power, indeed - many know she can be trusted and can’t be bought! I never bother listening to political endorsements - they mean nothing to me but, yeah, when Sarah speaks, I listen!
