Joe Miller continues to hang on to his lead but loses 374 votes and now leads Lisa Murkowski by 1,294 votes - 49,888 to 48,594. At the beginning of today the vote count was 47,027 to 45,359 with Joe Miller in the lead by 1668 votes. So all added up and subtracted this means that some 6096 extra votes have been counted today so far. According the Anchorage Daily News some 25000+ were to still to be counted before the start of today. So this means there are some 19000 yet to be counted. Which apparently will be counting up to September 8 giving time for those to come in I suppose.
So Joe Miller lost 374 after 6000 counted today with 19000 to go. If he continues to lose 374 votes every 6000 votes counted that would equate to about another 1184 votes lost after 19000. Which would still give him a victory by 110 votes. This is going to be close either way and with it being so close who knows if one side or the other side will immediately concede and not ask for a recount.
Alaskans also voted on a ballot initiative that parental consent should be given to minors before having an abortion by a margin of 56% to 44%
