Murkowski Concedes AK Senate Race to Miller

Wednesday

Incumbent Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski has conceded the Republican primary to her Tea Party-backed challenger Joe Miller, in what political analyst are calling the biggest upset of the election year. "I don't see a scenario where the primary will turn out in my favor," Murkowski said. Though state officials began to count absentee vote counts Monday, Murkowski was still more than 1,000 votes behind. Miller will now move on to the November general election, where he will face Democrat Scott McAdams.
