"The state Division of Elections tallied about 60,000 absentee, early and questioned ballots from around the state on Wednesday," the Alaska Daily News reported Thursday morning. "The ballots broke heavily in the Democrat's favor, erasing the 3,000-vote lead the Republican Stevens held after election night Nov. 4."
"The state still needs to count at least 15,000 questioned ballots and an estimated 25,000 absentees," the paper added. "With all the absentee votes coming in, this will be one of the biggest turnouts, if not the biggest in terms of ballots cast, the state has ever seen. That's despite questions in the media and on blogs about why turnout appeared low on Election Day."
