    It took nearly six weeks -- talk about a long election night wait -- but we finally have a winner in the race for Vermont State Auditor. Incumbent Randy Brock (R) appeared the winner on election night by a margin of 137 votes.

    MONTPELIER — Republican Randy Brock on Monday called on his election opponent, State Auditor Elizabeth Ready, to cease overseeing state audits until she can explain why several biographies credit her with college degrees she does not possess. Ready, a two-term Democrat from Lincoln seeking re-election on Nov. 2, said she has no intention of recusing herself. "I have a contract with Vermonters," she said Monday. "And I'm going to keep that contract." A biographical sketch book published by the Vermont secretary of state from 1988 to 1996 reported that Ready holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Vermont. Editions...
