Poll: Almost half in U.S. creationist


PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 6 (UPI) -- Sen. Gordon Smith, R-Ore., has called Democratic challenger Jeff Merkley Thursday to concede the race and end his 12-year Senate career.
The (Portland) Oregonian said Merkley was expected to declare victory in the hotly contested race later in the day.
The Oregonian said a Merkley aide confirmed the call.
Merkley's win means Oregon will have two Democrats in the Senate for the first time in some 40 years.
