Democrats on track to gain control of Senate?

[luv-em-n-lv-em]

It's still to close to call but in the deciding state of Virginia, the Democrats are in the lead by about 6000 votes with 99% of the precincts reporting.

Get ready for recount/judicial madness. Here we go again!!

I don't think Allan will go for a recount. Virginia uses electronic voting with no paper trail. There are no ballots to use a magnifying glass on, interpert or dispute. Under those conditions, 6000 votes is too much to make up.

By announcing Rumsfeld's replacement today, Bush and the Republicans have already accepted that the Democrats control both the House and Senate.

What remains is just posturing for the media.
