Alaska Senate Race Results 2010 updates

Was one of the strangest elections to the Senate every time I've seen so far. There are two official candidates in the vote for Republican and Democrat Joe Miller, Scott McAdams, however, are not the leading ones in the official count Survey and Alaska. So who is driving?
The leader with over 70% of the votes are independent and write-in "option. The "write-in" option to 40% lead against the two. This option includes all the other candidates that are not included on the ballot, but may be in writing and opens the door for candidates without party affiliation.
Alaska Senate incumbent Lisa Murkowski who was beaten by Miller in the Republican primary for the support of former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin launched a writing campaign for reelection. If the writing on votes won or part of a percentage point below the most votes, the ballots will be evaluated and counted to assess the actual votes cast in favor of specific candidates.
The evaluation of candidates in writing can take weeks and will considerably delay the proclamation of the winner in the election of the Alaska Senate. It seems that candidates for the Senate in the Alaska Senate race will have to deal with this.
Meanwhile, the Republicans triumphed in the elections of 2010 Alaska House race and the Governor. Republican Don Young defeated Democrat Harry Crawford by the House and the current Republican Governor Sean Parnell defeated his Democratic challenger Ethan Berkowitz.
