Thune's election won't be certain for at least a couple hours. The secretary of state had to have a computer chip driven up from Nebraska to repair a malfunctioning tabulation machine. About 6,000 votes won't be counted until then.

Aren't those votes supposed to be in "Thune Country", though? I think someone posted something to that effect earlier, though I can't really remember because it's been a long night.

Chips containing program code no doubt.
