  Michigan: Gravel vs. Hunter

  Of the many story lines to pay attention to this evening: Who gets more votes, Mike Gravel or Duncan Hunter? As of now, Bill Kristol and company on Fox News tell me that Gravel has seven more votes (51 to 44) with 2 percent of precincts reporting.

  Can Hunter stun the Alaskan and roar from behind? Remember, he's already got a delegate. Gravel better watch out.

  UPDATE 8:41 p.m.: Hunter pulls ahead!!! By 11 votes!!! He has 10 percentage points more than Gravel. Three percent of precincts reporting. Stay tuned for regular updates.

  UPDATE 8:45 p.m.: They're tied!!! But Gravel has one more percentage point's worth of precincts reporting, so Hunter actually has the edge.

  UPDATE 9:18 p.m.: Hunter is up by over 100 events. I'm going out on a limb and calling this race. Hunter will win (more votes than Gravel). You heard it here first.
