Not confirmed by others. Highest # of Thune votes yet.
Huge # of phony Indian registrations could not pull it off for Dems... but wait and see!!!

Those 3,000+ libertarian votes would have been nice to have. Alas, some people never learn.....
To: MindBender26
I thought I heard on ABC news that state law requires an automatic recount if the margin is under 800 votes.

But the absentees are still out, I think. We won't know about this one, for sure, for at least a couple of days, if not weeks.

Oh, you mean those "kinder, gentler Liberals"? Hehehehe

If they do it, they'll go to jail. The FBI is all over that mess with those Indians.

I certainly hope punchcards are not used in South Dakota.
No more hanging chads, please.

Would be funny if Thune wins by 188 or so and the RATS don't mount a real challenge due to fear of corruption (reservation fraud etc.) being exposed in Tommy boy's local RAT organization.

I don't know where they got these numbers. The last three boxes have yet to be posted.
Who was ABC's source?

This is not what is posted on the SD state election site. They have Thune up by +135 (166,697-166,562)with 3 precincts to go.
To: Russ
A Thune win would be the icing on the electoral cake!!! Friends, it's morning in American again!!!

We use Paper ballots and fill in the circles- no hanging chads. (Possibly a Stray mark or two?)
To: dennisw
Very possible scenerio you just outlined. I'd love it!
