CORRECTION: LR gets it wrong; Jesse Kelly still in contention

From Eric Dondero:

Yesterday Libertarian Republican reported that Pro-Defense Tea Party Republican Jesse Kelly lost his race for US Congress in Arizona to Democrat Gabriell Gifford, by less than 1% of the vote (less than 2,300 votes). We were relying on reports from liberal media sources.

We received a call from the campaign that indeed Kelly was still in contention, and that the race had not yet been called.

Obviously, it's a welcome error on our part. The campaign indicated to us that results might be known within days. We'll keep you informed of the latest.

Additionally, the race for a neighboring seat, Tea Party Republican Ruth McClung vs. Democrat Raul Grijalava, has similarly not yet been called. Approximately 3,000 votes separate the two candidates.
