I am glad no one started a pool, I would have bet on a much much lower number.
Hmmm... is that 11,000 correctly spelled write in's or a total of all derrivations of Christine O'Donnell?
Based off the results at the polling place I worked, I would bet there's a fair amount of credit given for bad spelling. We got a couple of votes for Christine O'Connell, as well as a few different spellings of O'Donnell. Per instructions, we listed each spelling separately on the tally sheet and let the Department make the call.
I, too, would have bet much lower on her total.
I find it funny that the local extreme left is silent on the fact that she out polled Berg and KHN combined.
Its a whole different race; you are comparing apples and oranges. The left did enough just to get Castle below 70%, a feat the Republicans and the extreme right could not accomplish in the Senate race.
/Hate to burst your buble MM
but Carper was held to mid 60's
