It's been more than a week since Election Day. Yet news about several races remains on front pages.
The Anchorage Daily News reported that the challenger has overtaken incumbent Ted Stevens by 814 votes in the Alaska U.S. Senate race. The front page answered "Four questions about the final count," which is including absentee ballots and ballots that were questioned on Election Day.
U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman and challenger Al Franken are neck-in-neck in a count that will decide the seat from Minnesota. 206 votes separate them. The Pioneer Press of St. Paul said the decision on who wins might come down to five people -- a panel in charge of a recount. The Pioneer Press' front page used a diagram to explain "The recount 5" who will oversee the hand counting of 2.92 million ballots. Online, the newspaper posted video of the state's secretary of state explaining the process and a PDF of a recount guide.
