Dem Jeff Merkley Declares Victory Over GOP Senator Gordon Smith By Eric Kleefeld - November 6, 2008, 12:13PM In a major Democratic pickup this year, Oregon Senate candidate Jeff Merkley is set to claim victory in the race against incumbent GOP Sen. Gordon Smith, Merkley's spokesperson has just told us. "We will have a comment from Jeff at 9:30 this morning [Pacific Time], where he will claim victory," Merkley spokesman Matt Canter told Election Central. The Oregonian, the Associated Press, NBC News and Fox News have all called the race for Merkley. It's taken a while to get this race counted because of Oregon's mail-in vote system, but it's now very clear that almost all the outstanding ballots are from Dem strongholds that Merkley has been winning handily -- and he's already up on Smith by a few points in the count as it is. This brings the Democrats to a gain of six Senate seats so far, with three GOP-held races still up in the air. The Dems now have 57 Senate seats, counting Joe Lieberman. Late Update: Gordon Smith has conceded the election.
