From Sean Cockerham at the Alaska Division of Elections office in Anchorage --

Update, 11:10 a.m.: Joe Miller's lead over Lisa Murkowski narrowed from 1,668 votes to 1,325 with the first count of absentee ballots this morning.

It looks like 2,391 votes were counted in this first batch. They're from Districts 17 through 26, all Anchorage.

More numbers to come.

They don’t mind, as long as a conservative doesn’t win.

3 days of vote counting or about 556 votes per day to take lead, 374 votes so far today, only need 182 to make quota.

The Murkowski campaign is now using the Al Franken tactic of "finding ballots"...

The count is to include 496 ballots from the Laurel/Dowling area of South Anchorage that weren't counted on Election Day. Elections workers had uploaded a touch-screen memory card that made it look like the results had been reported... but didn't upload the card used to count the ...ballots, according to the Division of Elections."

She is probably getting A LOT of help from her leftist buddies in trying to steal this election

Is there a count available yet on which the number of votes each candidate received on those “newly found ballots?”

I’ll be shocked if Miller’s wins the majority.

Your yelling! Are you upset, lol.

I hope Miller is on top of this. Heard on an earlier report that Miller has piped down a little on accusations due to Murkowski calling him paranoid. “This happens alot in ALaska” RINO Lisa said.

Im not liking her too much lately.

Multiple memory cards from a small district is a really bad sign!

This is what I saw posted over at RedState:

“precinct 30-855 (Laurel-Dowling) has reported. It went for Murkowski 176 to 151 for Miller.

This precinct was not counted on election night. The counting card was not feed in to the counter.”

Miller should run on the Libertarian Party ticket if they steal this election. My guess is he would win.

She got 60% in districts where she had gotten 56% on election day. A 4% Murkowski outperformance among absentees isn’t unexpected at all, and it is far short of the 10% or so outperformance she needs to catch Miller.

Oh yeah - it stinks. Good that Miller didn’t lose by much (on that card).
