Senate Updates

It looks like there will be a December 2 runoff in Georgia between the incumbent Saxby Chambliss (R) and the challegner Jim Martin (D).

Also, expect a recount in the Minnesota race between incumbent Norm Coleman (R) and Al Franken (D).

The Dems currently have 56 seats in the senate for sure, but those races could add two more. I think that Chambliss is a lock for Georgia in the runoff because after the Obama win, Georgians might not want a huge democratic majority. But Minnesota could be interesting...
