The Burlington Free Press is reporting that Tim Ashe did in fact win a Senate seat yesterday. The Freeps story, all five sentences, says that an "incorrect number" in one ward's vote count had put Denise Barnard of Richmond ahead of Ashe. But the Burlington City Councilor was notified today that the count had been corrected and that he had won the sixth Senate seat.More to come on this story, no doubt.
