Um...you have that wrong. Owens is the only Dem. Based on projections, he'll get the office but not by much.

Democrat Bill Owens has received the endorsement of the Independence Party, who originally backed Republican Dede Scozzafava. She will remain on the I-line for the election, but Independence Party chairman Frank MacKay said in a statement:
“While I respect that some of our local organizations will make endorsements, as Chairman of the New York State Independence Party today I am proudly endorsing Bill Owens for Congress. I strongly urge all Independence Party members and voters throughout the 23rd District to cast their vote for Bill Owens on Tuesday,” said MacKay.
You Dems and Independents better get out there and vote. Owens needs every vote he can get.
