Poll: Almost half in U.S. creationist


FRANKFORT, Ky., Nov. 4 (UPI) -- Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky was re-elected to the U.S. Senate Tuesday, defeating Louisville businessman Bruce Lunsford.
Democrats had pegged McConnell for defeat in their quest to gain a filibuster-proof, 60-seat majority.
With the win, McConnell becomes Kentucky's longest-serving senator, the Louisville Courier-Journal reported.
McConnell had a double-digit lead in the race until late September, when the U.S. economy went south and Lunsford began to surge in the polls.
