  Sanders: We certainly didn’t expect to get 52 percent of the absentee ballots, cause a lot of those were cast before I started my TV advertising, before S&P came out and before the Attorney General’s report, so we felt really good about getting 52 percent of the absentee. That’s really a good sign.
