Graves has a BIG uphill climb, but there's a lot of voters in Stearns and Sherburne. So he doesn't have to win all these districts but it would help if he's close in all of them.

I don't think there are enough votes left for Graves to pull ahead.

(5,763 posts)Maybe there will be a recount.
Even so, Bachmann will go into her next term with less confidence, knowing she has to tone down to survive.
Would have been good to see both her and West go, but between the two of them, I'd rather see West, and he's gone.
