The tight Republican primary in retiring Rep. Bart Stupak's northern Michigan district is finally decided. State Sen. Jason Allen, the second place finisher by 15 votes, decided not to ask for a recount Saturday night. "Over the last few months we had a spirited campaign and I am truly humbled by the support I have received across the first Congressional district," Allen said in a news release. "This past week I have been speaking to Republican leaders across the state, my supporters and most importantly my family, to determine the best course of action. As a result of those conversations,...

He’s been certified - with a 15 vote margin; votes matter, folks - so (barring a final recount request from the Allen campaign) he’s the nominee. And Dan would like to credit all of you and the rest of the online community for your help with it. The campaign was kind enough to give RedState first look at his video thanks:

Benishek was in the race before Stupak announced his retirement plans, and the establishment-backed Allen jumped in after the seat opened up and became competitive. While the district leans Republican, Stupak has held the seat since 1992 and has won by more than 60 percent in each of his elections since 2002. Allen has until Sunday morning to decide whether to request a recount, a lengthy and expensive proposition that would cut into the eventual winner's time and money to run against McDowell.

Benishek held a conference call today with members of the newsmedia and was asked a number of questions. Joining in on the conference call were his lead counsel, Charlie Spies and his strategist. When asked how the process works from here, Spies said that Allen has until 10:14 Sunday morning (48 hours from certification) to file a recount petition, then the Benishek camp has up to 7 days to counter. When asked how much a recount would cost the candidates, Spies did not give an exact figure, but stressed that Benishek is benefiting from a number of energized volunteers both...

Been thinking a lot about one of my favorite Country tunes ever since you and Dr. Dan Benishek fought to almost a draw in your primary race. If my information is correct, Dr. Dan held a 1-vote lead over you on Election Night. Now, with the canvass of all the counties complete, that lead has “stretched” to 15 votes. That means that Dr. Benishek continues to cling to the narrowest of margins, and you are looking at another old saying: “So close, and yet so far.” And now you have a major, strategic decision to make. Do you accept the...

Jason Allen and Dan Benishek faced off in what proved to be a very tight GOP primary on August 3 for Michigan’s 1st Congressional District seat once occupied by Bart Stupak. At the end of the night, Benishek was up by a single vote. In the days since, as each precinct and each county has been working to review and verify and certify, Allen and Benishek have had to ready legal teams and file paperwork and assemble staff in order to prepare for a recount fight…should one come. That decision rests soley on Allen’s shoulders. Over those 9 days Benishek’s...

Benishek Up As Counties Continue to Certify Primary Results By Tricia Miller | August 9, 2010 6:46 PM Surgeon Dan Benishek leads state Sen.

With 16 of 31 counties certifying their results, Benishek is ahead by 18 votes, according to his campaign.

GOP deadlocked for Stupak seat By: Kasie Hunt August 4, 2010 03:55 PM EDT One vote: That's all that separates the two Republicans vying for the right to seek retiring Michigan Democratic Rep. Bart Stupak's House seat. The unofficial vote tally kept by the Michigan secretary of state's office showed physician Dan Benishek with 27,091 votes Wednesday, compared with 27,090 for state Sen. Jason Allen. (The Associated Press gave Benishek a slightly larger, 12-vote lead.) It's a margin so slim that the top two primary finishers could remain in limbo through weeks or even months of ballot-counting and litigation. And...

Map of Michigan CountiesIt's basically the UP and Alpena and Iosco, for Benishek. Allen got the LP and Alger minus a very important Alpena. Let's hope this stands.

One of the most annoying things for me has been the fact that every time a vote has been held in congress in the past, the top half of Michigan would be shown in blue on a congressional vote map, along with the Detroit area. If anything, the top half of Michigan is more like the nation’s south, than it is like the state’s southeast. We are resourceful, tolerant people who have finally had enough. I live in the First District of Michigan, and am involved in the primary elections which are quickly approaching, next Tuesday. There is one Democrat...

Docs4PatientCare began as a grassroots movement led by a prominent physician in Atlanta, Georgia, Dr. Hal Scherz,who felt he must act in response to the AMA's support of Obamacare. Attempting to enact his big-government health care scheme, President Obama and his supporters frequently claimed that a “majority” of doctors supported his health-care plans. When the American Medical Association – which had opposed HillaryCare – signed onto Obama’s plan last year, the organization seemed to make the President’s case. Most people assumed that the AMA represented most of the doctors in the country. But in fact, the AMA represents less than...
