WNPR reports on Tuesday's primaries

It's about a day later than I wanted, but I'm posting some of the audio from Tuesday's primary election. WNPR's Av Harris and Marie Kuhn reported live from Bridgeport, as State Senator Bill Finch beat State representitive Chris Caruso by a slim margain. As you can hear in this piece by Marie, Caruso isn't accepting the loss. Av's feature story took a larger look at the race - and includes comments from both campaigns.
Contrast these stories, obviously written for broadcast, with some Associated Press reports from that night.

We also talked with the Secretary of the State, Susan Bysiewicz on Where We Live. She told us the new optical scan voting machines worked well, and very few problems were reported.
