good ABC early morning recap of the most interesting races from yesterday, though I think Francine has now moved up to 45%.

"....With 68 percent of precincts reporting, Republican Brian Bilbray was ahead with 45,528 votes, or 49.7 percent, to Democrat Francine Busby's 41,198 votes, or 44.9 percent, in the special election to replace Randy "Duke" Cunningham, who was convicted of corruption charges.

Elsewhere, Alabama Gov. Bob Riley easily beat back a GOP primary challenge from Ten Commandments judge Roy Moore,



A few races brought back some familiar names:

Jerry Brown the former California governor, presidential candidate and current Oakland mayor won the Democratic primary for attorney general.

George C. Wallace Jr., son of the former Alabama governor, trailed in the GOP primary for lieutenant governor to attorney Luther Strange but the race goes to a runoff because no one got 50 percent.

Hollywood director Rob Reiner was the leading backer of a measure in California to create a $2.4 billion universal preschool program, which went down to defeat by a 60-to-40-percent margin."

With 68 percent of precincts reporting...

Even ABC can't check a website? Over 90% have reported. See my post above.

That 68% number is way off.

90+% have reported and Bilbray has won.

Hip Hip Hooray!!!!! It's the end of Meathead's political career and maybe a sign of some growing fiscal sanity in California!
