Does someone have to get over 50% to be declared a winner?

In some states, an absolute majority is required, otherwise the top two go to a run-off.

I wouldn't be too worried, the TEA Party has, as far as I can tell, won every run-off they've been in, and by large margins.

All Chris has to get is 50% plus 1 vote.
