Below The Beltway

I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.

Democratic Senate Pickups Remain At Five, Four Races Undecided

by @ 7:22 am on November 5, 2008.

At the very least, the Democrats will have five additional seats in the new Senate, and there are four states where the race is still close to call.

In Georgia, Saxby Chambliss holds a slim lead over his Democratic opponent:

Georgia Senate

Chambliss looks like to both win and get above the 50% mark and avoid a runoff.

In Minnesota, Norm Coleman and Al Franken remain in a very tight race:

Minn Senate

This one could go either way and may be headed for a recount in either case.

In Oregon, Gordon Smith is fighting for his life:

Oregon Senate

With 26% of the precincts still out, Smith is not out of the woods at all.

Finally, in Alaska, Ted Stevens (R., Federal Prison) is holding on to a slim lead:

Alaska Senate

Even if Stevens wins, I can’t imagine him actually serving out his term, at least not his Senate term.
