Sen. Murray Re-Elected in Washington
------------------------------------



Democratic incumbent Patty Murray has held on to her Senate seat in
Washington State. Murray claimed victory last night after Republican
challenger Dino Rossi conceded the race. Her victory means Democrats
will control fifty-three seats in the new Senate, a loss of six seats.
Alaska’s Senate race remains undecided, with two Republicans, incumbent
Lisa Murkowski and primary victor Joe Miller, in a tight race as votes
are still being counted.
