SEATTLE -- A widening corruption scandal threw a new shadow over Alaska's powerful Republican political establishment Tuesday, with veteran congressman Don Young fighting to hold onto the seat he has held for 35 years. With more than half of the primary votes counted, Young was running neck-and-neck with Republican Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell, who has been endorsed by Gov. Sarah Palin. But Sen. Ted Stevens, facing a federal indictment over improperly reported income, was winning easily against six Republican challengers, pulling 63% of the vote.

As of right now, incumbent Don Young leads challenger Sean Parnell by 145 votes. A third GOP candidate, Gabrielle Ledoux, has 8,539 votes. She ran on a "clean up Washington" message generally parallel to Parnell's message, and wasn't a real contender at any point. Not sure what her motivation was to stay in the race, but the effect of it may be to ensure Don Young's political survival. There are roughly 4,000 absentee ballots, which I understand are yet to be counted.
