The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.
Democratic Governor Joe Manchin still holds a slight lead over Republican John Raese in the final hours of West Virginia’s surprisingly close special U.S. Senate race. The final Rasmussen Reports statewide telephone survey of the contest finds Manchin with the support of 50% of the state’s Likely Voters, while 46% prefer Raese. One percent (1%) like some other candidate, and three percent (3%) remain undecided. The race remains a Toss-Up in the Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Senate Balance of Power.
