so Busby is winning

[mimitabby]

I just checked

http://www.sdvote.org/election/special.xml

and it appears she is way out in front, with a 43% portion of the vote.

[LA lady]

1. run off

She will face a runoff against top Rep in June I think. No one made 50%

2. Correct

And I think she has a pretty decent shot at it.

In one of the most repuke districts in the country no less, you can smell the stink of republicanism from the highway there.

3. it's a runoff but

it appears the people she is up against are mostly GOP

[LA lady]

4. She has to do better

She will be in a run off with Bilbray, King and Griffith. The Reps got about 54% of the vote and the Ind only got about 1.5%
We NEED this seat but I am just not sure...

5. When is the runoff vote? Can't you still count on the Pub vote

being split between the other three?

6. Early June I think

And IIRC the runoff will only be between the top vote getter in each party, ie a two person race.

7. Well at least the pubbies she is going against

are not as nuts... in fact bilbray is descent when compared to pubblies that is... but damn it I wished she got the seat puitright
