#1 Four trunks. Jeanne Schmidt's opponent conceded yesterday. You'll remember Representative Schmidt (R-OH) as the newbie who reprimanded the honourable Mr. Murtha for being a consummate ass.

#2 How about a 5th trunk? If the new Democratic leadership is going to stymie Jane Harman's advancement in the house she might as well switch parties. Pelosi can take her personal vendetta and stick it.

#3 NM 1st District was just settled by 800 and some odd votes in favor the Trunk. Unlike the other states, NM requires the challenger to pay for the recount, which was declined. Not that the Donks didn't try hard to fix it both by shorting predominate Trunk precincts of early voting stations and literally the paper ballots used in voting - 100 to one with 1,700 registered. Sorry, out of ballots, come back later. Right. That was hard to hide. Tried the court route also to extend the process but the law was clear and the ~~party~~ hack judge couldn't get away with further extensions.

#4 #3. Democratic challenger Patricia Madrid, trailing by fewer than 900 votes, on Tuesday conceded the 1st District contest to Republican Heather Wilson. But the NM Dems ain't done yet. They're considering a partial recount in the Democratic stronghold of Bernillo county. Thatt tactic didn't work for Gore. hope it doesn't work in NM either.

#5 So what is the total Democrat vs. republican count in the House of Representatives now? I've lost track.

#6 TW - I assumed the MSM gave thos seats to Trunks - since they were ahead, and sometimes declared the winner....

But this IS the Main Stream Media.

#7 The 203 GOP count includes these 3 (4, 5). So no improvement.
