Vermont Election Results *UPDATED*

UPDATE: Tim Ashe came in 6th in the Chittenden County Senate race. See below.

UPDATE II: Click here for coverage of the Chittenden 3-4 race on the What's Good college blog.

It was a late night.

Here's an update on some of the races we were following last night but were too close to call when I ended the liveblog:

Chittenden 3-4:
Dave Zuckerman (P) 2316 (winner)
Kesha Ram (D) 2163 (winner)
Chris Pearson (I) 1494
Phillip Ortego (D) 781

Chittenden County Senate results:
Doug Racine (D) 42,938
Ed Flanagan (D) 37,644
Virginia "Ginny" Lyons (D) 34,494
Diane Snelling (R) 31,148
Hinda Miller (D) 30,395
Denise Barnard (D) 25,863

The Burlington Free Press is now reporting that Tim Ashe (P-D) came in 6th in this race, with 28,048 votes. Apparently there was a tabulation error in one of the Burlington wards. The Burlington results were a mess last night.

For more complete results, see the Burlington Free Press site.

Oh yeah, and Barack Obama won.

I am Philip Ortego from Western New Mexico University. Can anyone provide me with information about the Phillip Ortego (D) who ran in the Vermont races?
