Very weird result in the CT race. Lamont loses with EXACT number that republican did in 2000

Okay I was wondering how LIEberman did in 2000 so after spending a half hour trying to track down the numbers I found them on the FEC site.

(I just rechecked the numbers and I had copied them wrong. they are exactly the same)

In 2000 here is the break down in voting per

http://www.fec.gov/....

Democratic votes = 828,902

Republican votes = 448,077

Other votes = 34,282

okay now lets look at 2006

http://www.cnn.com/....

Lieberman votes = 562,850

Lamont votes = 448,077

Schlesinger votes = 109,329

Ferrucci votes = 5923
Knibbs votes = 4638

Somebody should have played the lottery because the odds of Lamont losing in 2006 with the EXACT amount of votes the republican lost with in 2000 is astronomically high.

weird.

Anybody have any thoughts on this?
