thousands of votes out and they are Merkley strongholds. That's Portland and Eugene. This could be a long day here.

1. It's a damn nail biter :-(
Merkley is inching up, but Gordo is still in the lead. Ugh.

Come on Multnomah County!!! Send that pea-picker packin'!!

2. Problems with tabulators again. Are they counting those darn things by hand?
2006 went so well but this one is a stinker.

3. Only 46% of precinct reporting so far from Multnomah Co.

So, what's the story on why these votes haven't been reported yet? Sorry, if this has been talked about but I haven't seen it.

(edit for spelling)
