In Alaska, Republicans Steve Strait and Becky Gay are running neck-and-neck in the primary race for a seat in the Alaska House of Representatives. With all precincts reporting, it’s 947 votes for Strait and 945 votes for Gay. Maybe absentee votes (all those sailors overseas) will tip the balance.
(Thanks for the story tip, Dad.)
Mike, the Division of Elections just posted new numbers with absentee ballots counted. Steve Strait is now 16 votes ahead. The paper said there may be a recount, but it looks like Strait is in and Gay is not. Could you say that a Gay was outed (ousted) by a Strait? Probably not, huh?

Mike–what was 9/11 like there? I’m so over-saturated with “remembrance” at this point that I’ve stopped listening to the radio or watching TV . . .
