| Virginia's Sen. Allen to speak on contested race Reuters - Republican Sen. George Allen (news, bio, voting record), whose tight race will determine control of the Senate, has scheduled a 3 p.m. announcement, his office said on Thursday. Allen, who trails Democrat James Webb by some 8,000 votes after Tuesday's voting, was expected to concede the race. Democrats on Capitol Hill scheduled a rally.

Webb has claimed victory and several media outlets including television networks NBC and CBS and The Associated Press also declared him the winner. Allen said he was awaiting the outcome of a canvass of the state's voting tallies. Last edited by Dumpy Dooby; 11-09-2006 at 02:30 PM..
