Following the final count today of the roughly 24,000 remaining ballots in the Alaska U.S. Senate race, Mark Begich leads Senator Ted Stevens by 3,724 votes; 150,728 to 147,004.

Begich released the following statement following the count:

I am humbled and honored to serve Alaska in the United States Senate,” Begich said. “It’s been an incredible journey getting to this point, and I appreciate the support and commitment of the thousands of Alaskans who have brought us to this day. I can’t wait to get to work fighting for Alaskan families.

Thank you to all the supporters who have taken us to this point. We could not have done this without you!
