Stevens Trailing By 3 Votes In Alaska Senate Race

Convicted felon Ted Stevens now trailing in Alaska Senate race with over 10,000 ballots left to count. Dems could hit 58 in the Senate.
"Republican Sen. Ted Stevens, a titan of Alaska politics convicted of felony charges last month, fell behind by three votes Wednesday as the count resumed in his re-election bid.

Democrat Mark Begich, the two-term mayor of Anchorage, began Wednesday down more than 3,200 votes but closed the gap as officials resumed counting early and absentee ballots. The tally was 125,019 to 125,016.
"
Any wonder why Stevens doesn't want the remaining votes counted? He's going to lose. Republican voter suppression alive and well in Alaska.
