rossi? >> i am the youngest of seven kids raised on a seattle teacher's salary. i wanted to go to college, so i worked a number of jobs to make that happen. i also received threats -- grants and student loans. when we had the biggest deficit in state history, i made sure that we had grants available to students. i wanted to lay down the railroad tracks to make sure that scholarships were available for kids like me. i ended up receiving the stanley mcnaughton award from a group of independent colleges. our oldest is a sophomore in college. i know exactly how expensive this is. we need to make sure that there are loans available. we need to make sure that there are grants available for kids who cannot afford college. education is the key to their future. >> what i did not hear in that answer is whether or not you would agree with me that we should not be giving banks the responsibility of student loans, so that they profit from them. i have consistently voted that the money should go directly

dino rossy her challenger got into her race very late in may. he's very well known because he's run for governor here twice. one very close race first time around went to court lost to governor chris agreeing wire in a recount. secone around was beaten. this time around it's close. it's still a bit early in the evening. i just talked to our pollster from the washington poll from the university of washington. and the one thing that he said to me is that right now patty murray is doing very well here in king county. the most populous county in the state of washington. in fact her numbers are pretty similar to where the governor was when she defeated dino rossi in 2008. he's only at about 38%. he needs to be over 40% to be able to do well in this county because it is more progressive. it's more of a democratic county. so it's early but it's still leaning to murray at this point. but it could be tight. the other thing to keep in mind here is we're pretty much all male mail ballots in the state of washington. we have one county in pierce county south

incumbent senator patty murphy held off dino rossie in a tight contest. our reporter peter bose is in los angeles. why has it taken so long to get these results? >> well, washington state has a very high proportion of mail-in ballots, much more than most other u.s. states. that largely is why it takes so long to count the votes. so it has been three days since the election that coupled with the fact of course that this has been a very close race between an incumbent democrat and a local businessman, dino rossie, he has a long track record in this state, an aspiring politician, a very hard-fought campaign. he aimed his campaign at mostly her spending record and also her campaign contributors. it was closely fought and obama, this was on the list of the democrats' top 10, so nationally the democrats put a lot of into campaigning for their candidate. and as you say, she has succeeded in winning a fourth term in the senate. >> looking at the balance of the democrats, particularly in the house of representatives where it's lost the majority, where does this le
