This will be short but McJoan's FP thread is too long.
AFTER the 10,800 absentee votes in Flathead County were tallied, Burns had a net gain in the statewide numbers of 271 votes. Happy dance right there that my home did not inflict any particular damage on the state-wide tally.
Final numbers from Flathead are no surprise.
Burns-18,511
Tester-13,276
Yellowstone and Gallatin are still in play.
Gallatin will probably trend Tester and Yellowstone was trending away from Burns (in his own backyard).
It's not over, but it's looking better.
