Did Green Party cost Democrats control of Michigan Senate?


Remember this if you're tempted to vote Libertarian in the future.
Republicans won the two closest Senate races in last week's election by a combined 1,294 votes out of 210,000 cast, giving them a 21-17 majority instead of a 19-19 tie to be broken by Democratic Gov. Jennifer Granholm's lieutenant governor. Both races had Green Party candidates who ran as part of the "Stop the War Slate."
Democrats say most of those votes would have been theirs if not for the Green Party...
