This will be an epic victory for the Tea Party if he wins. Who knows how many MSNBC talking heads will commit suicide.

"Previous write-in campaigns in Alaska have demonstrated that as much as 5 to 6 percent of returned ballots have not met the standard to be counted as a valid vote," the statement said.

Fingers crossed that happens again

So doesn't that mean out of 100 write-ins, 5-6 of them were for Mickey Mouse, who didn't register as a write-in? If that's the case, it won't mean much.

Hope this is quicker than the Franken-Coleman race where the winner wasn't sworn in until like June the following year.

Go Miller.

I can't find the video, but there was a hilarious clip of the gov't counting paper ballots - while lawyers disputed them - and trying to decide if "Al Frankenstein" written on an unmarked ballot was indeed a vote for Al Franken.
