Begich Pulls Ahead By 814 In Alaska

The race is looking better for Democrats to get another Senate seat.
Mark Begich made a dramatic comeback Wednesday to overtake 40-year incumbent Ted Stevens for the lead in Alaska's U.S. Senate race.

Begich, who was losing after election night, now leads Stevens by 814 votes -- 132,196 to 131,382 -- with the state still to count roughly 40,000 more ballots over the next week.
Is there anything that Nate Silver isn't right about?
