One in a million tie
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - February 7, 2008 At least not in Syracuse, New York. The
unofficial Board of Election results from the Super Tuesday primary
show each candidate got exactly 6,001 votes. Syracuse University
math prof Hyune-Ju Kim says the odds of that happening are around
one in a million. He tells the Syracuse Post-Standard newspaper
with so many votes cast, it's "almost impossible" to get a tie.
Clinton won the primary in her adopted home state with 57 percent,
to Obama's 40 percent.
