| Description | JUNEAU, Alaska — The lawyers have started leaving, perhaps the surest sign Joe Miller's chances of becoming the next senator from Alaska are evaporating. With each passing day that election workers in Juneau manually count write-in votes cast for Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski, it appears increasingly likely Alaskans spell too well for Miller's math to work.
Assisted by lawyers sent by the Republican National Senatorial Committee, Miller campaign workers set out to challenge every smudge, stray mark and misspelling they could find on write-in votes that appeared to be for Murkowski.
The plan was to question enough votes to close the 11,000-vote margin by which he trails. |
