Could SC-05 be a surprise victory?? [View all]

Somebody who knows more about this district than, please tell me. I took a look at the Sec of State site. Right now it says

Parnell - 16,531
Norman - 16,198

Ballots cast - 34,409

So with only 1800 votes left to count, Parnell has a lead of 330 votes. Could he really win this sleeper? Am I missing something?

Parnell is a rich former Banker. He likely did not need money sent. Blue_true Jun 2017 #10
